Though the high class of dubai are able to easily afford this park, they're not dumb people by any standard. Right next to IMG (literally a kilometer appart) is Dubai's most crowded and visited theme park, Global village. With an initial entry fee 96% cheaper than IMG, you only have to pay an extra fee if you're interested in the rides. IMG still refuses to lower it's prices, and even in rich private schools of Dubai, students activley vote against going to img because of it's prices and if global village doesn't have the rides they want, they go to motiongate.

Honestly it would be a great idea for them to have a discount with a global village ticket that would encourage people nearby to visit. especially with the late night crowds at global village. They can still keep the entry price high while offering discounts to fill the park. This screams mismanagement. At this point even getting people in with per attreaction pricing would be a better idea.

I went there two months back with my two sons and wife. The boys actually enjoyed it but me and my wife found its very weird. The car park had about 20 cars in it, we thought the taxi took us to the wrong place at the start. Anyway, we got on most rides without waiting but this always gave a strange feeling, almost a liminal type feeling as if it wasn't reality. It's a huge structure and looking up at the celling was surreal, its far more enormous inside than out and I found myself looking up most the of the time. One ride we loved, was Spiderman. The videos on here don't do it justice. It's fare more intense then it looks. We go back next year but we wont be returning here.

This is a clear example that the environment created by the people is fundamental, it is the atmosphere that is created, between people shouting, children running, even the anticipation in a queue for a ride can be positive for the experience.

Hey Taylor. Great video as always! It helped inform my visit to the park which I went to yesterday. If you think it was quiet when you went, you'd be shocked at how dead the park was yesterday. You're right - the vibe is just, off. The darkness of Lost Valley is way too dark and I think it hinders creating a joyful atmosphere in the park. I did every attraction in the park including the Ben 10 theatre which was awesome! 15 minutes long with a great storyline and immersive experience. The "Chinatown" section you mentioned is not permanent, but seasonal. That section was themed to the UAE National Day Celebration when I went, which is coming up very soon, so for you they themed it to Chinese New Year. I'm happy I went to the park, but I would not go again. I much prefer all the parks in Abu Dhabi which have a vibrant, friendly and jovial atmosphere. This park felt soulless to me. I wish it well though - it deserves to succeed. Thanks for the informative and beautiful content you create. I always look forward to your videos 🙂

If you have ever been to MotionGate, a far more busy theme park, that one still has 4 times less people on average in terms of queues than an average UK theme park on an less busy day.

This is one of my favourite places to go to, since childhood and even until now. I do understand how the tickets can be quite pricey, hence we always tend to buy them through resellers for three quarter's of the actual selling price online. It can be quite packed during the weekends to the point that you could expect to be waiting as long as 30-40 minutes in the queue for some of the rides (Particulary Velociraptor, Predator, The Haunted Hotel and the Spiderman Doc-Ock's Revenge), quite easily. You were quite lucky to go on a day where it was relatively empty to make the most of your time as I'd definitely prefer that over the former situation!

Very true, I think the possibility of a good indoor park in the USA has never really been explored. For example I always think that a smaller and cheaper park for Orlando would be great. Either for the tourist who would visit between the big Disney and Uni parks or for the local who just wants to have fun with his family on a Sunday. A park like Warner in Abu Dhabi seems ideal to me. Not much else is needed really, there is no need for another Epic Universe, but if it is well curated and themed, an indoor park would have a great market and popularity, especially in the summer. Not to mention that it would bring the Warner brand finally (as a park and not a sad license to SF) not only to Orlando but to the USA, which is ironic since the 3 Warner parks are outside the USA. If that were to happen, wow, Orlando and Central Florida would definitely be complete and would truly be the Theme Park Capital, which it has long been credited with.

The pricing is so infuriating because IMG is a very popular park in Dubai, it has hype around it and during discounts the park is PACKED, one time I went the Velociraptor's queue was like 3/4th way done this year. They could price it just a bit less and people will start pouring in and they can get so many customers and pay off that huge debt which took to build the place, and maybe even go through with the World of Legends expansion. But the people running the park are idiots on another planet, they just gave up on this park which still has so much potential.

Watching this was like listening to my own opinions on someone else's video 😆 IMG is just the weirdest park EVER. Like, on paper it's really cool, and it's has a good vibe with decent rides, but there was nothing that really stands out, nothing I was desperate to ride over and over. Hulk Epsilon base was my favourite ride too, which must say something about the park if a 3d cinema/simulator is the best ride 😆 I'm surprised you didn't mention anything about the large number of full service/buffet restaurants. There's more of them than guests in the park, and they were all open, with absolutely no one in them at all 😆 I've been in 2017 and 2024, and I only returned this year due to visiting the UAE with friends that hadn't been before. But it is definitely the weakest of the major parks in the country, and the one I'm least likely to ever return to!

Geauga Lake in the early 80's during the last hour of the park being open would allow double rides if there was nobody in the queue line at that seat's stall.

I've gone to IMG four times. Once as a sophomore for a class field trip in 2016 or 17, twice in 2019 with my little cousins and former stepbrother, and summer 2024. Every time I've gone all the rides have been walk-ons. The most significant wait I've ever had was about fifteen-twenty minutes for Spiderman this summer. Because everything was a walk-on, me and my friend were through with the park in about four or five hours, including lunch (which was awful, but both other times I went it was great, and at different restaurants). One caveat is that I only ever had to pay for entrance in 2019 when I got an annual pass (because I was going twice that year and it was cheaper to get an annual pass than purchase two tickets) because my mom has contacts. While its fun, and a great time, especially when I went with my little cousins, its just too far out of the way from the rest of Dubai. If it was on the metro line or connected to a mall it'd be booming----I'd probably get an annual pass for that and go at least monthly.

They had a section across the street with gas powered go karts. I think they did like 40 miles an hour. A lot of people got hurt on those that week we were there😂 😂😂 it was still a really fun place. We all left to bruises and banged elbows and knees, and that was it. It was a great time.

The majority of people that live here are families and bachelors with solid incomes, the minority are the labor workers. This country is also one without a taxes. Lastly the theme park was never made for the residents. If you truly understood the way this country is Abe to make profit it all comes down to the money they make from tourism and keep in mind that ALOT of their income is from tourism so it makes sense that this country would make their tourist attractions pricey although it isn’t ideal as it backfired and now the majority of people that visit the theme park is residents as residents will be given special privileges such as huge discounts off the price. I hope this adds to your knowledge.

Weather is a major factor. If Dubai's climate were more like that found in southern Europe or Southern Calif, that would help. However, desert heat for decades hasn't stopped Las Vegas. But Sin City is largely in the adult category of gambling, not family-children-type entertainment. The culture & economy of the UAE are also not like what's found in Orlando. If Worlds of Adventure had been built in metro London, it would boom, just as Universal's park in Osaka has. Universal Studios, not surprisingly, is building a park in suburban London.

Any weird parks like this in Asia in terms of prices

I agree with the fellow who said he would pay the $100.00 to have the park with little ppl. My and I use to go to six flags during the week when open. We go to this water park, and we went when it started raining. We were practically the only ppl there. It was live. I don't think the women over there enjoy going. You know w/there heritage and all?? But 100.00?? Too much. I can imagine how expensive everything else is.

Imagine complaining about having an empty theme park to yourself, and being able to actually ride all the attractions instead of wasting most of your time standing in queues

I've always wanted to get to one of these indoor parks but to far and expensive.

Unfortunately pricing is a big deal. The vast majority of people in that country are poor, or lower middle class, and simply cannot afford $100 a day to do anything, especially when there are options. The richer class----of whom the owners definitely are-----are way out of touch with how much money the average person has. To the rich, $100 is pocket change. But to the poor, that is rent and food for a month. And by the way, unless you checked it out, don't be so sure that the park paid to buy licensing for IP's like the Avengers. Just like China, the Middle East is famous for stealing IP's.

Damn I went there on a school trip and I feel nostalgic already even though it was just a year ago it was a very special and fun trip with my friends but their last since 2 out of my 4 friends left the country during and after summer vacation every ride was fun in its own way but I think yas island has more to offer because of its ownership of many ips including DC and WB franchises also including better deals than img world.

The parks in Dubai are plenty but they are NOT good. The only park that is good is Atlantis Aquaventure, it's superb. Wild Wadi is pretty good also.

The problem with Dubai is all smoke and mirrors. Nothing has substance or depth which shows in all the buildings and parks.

$100 as a start up price just like that is too bad. People just cannot afford that per day per person. Universal and Disney can do it all better with that price.
