The Walt Disney Company on Wednesday announced plans to add another theme park to its Experiences portfolio — its seventh in total.
The new resort is being planned for Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, on Yas Island. The island, which has an area of about 10 square miles, is already home to several theme parks, including Ferrari World and Warner Bros. World.
“This is a thrilling moment for our company as we announce plans to build an exciting Disney theme park resort in Abu Dhabi, whose culture is rich with an appreciation of the arts and creativity,” Bob Iger, the CEO of the Walt Disney Company, was quoted as saying in a Wednesday press release.
Unlike most current Disney parks, Disney will not run Disney’s Abu Dhabi park, but rather Miral, an entertainment management company which owns many of the theme parks on Yas Island. Disney will be licensing its intellectual property for the project and providing development and management services, according to a regulatory filing obtained by the Associated Press. Disney also won’t be providing any capital, but will earn royalties based on the project’s revenues, and also service fees.

will they have a gay day?“
No, definitely not. Disney is only interested in destroying our culture.
Another Disney park i’ll never go to. I’m not going to China disney and now arab crazy-town disney. I want to be able to come home.
Mohammed, the ride designer, says the ride will be completely safe but added "sometimes mistakes happens. Accidents happen".
The main attraction will the the cliff where they toss the fairies.
Rocking the Casbah Coaster
Will it be LBQTetc.+ friendly?
Will Daisy and Minnie be wearing burkas?
That’s just it. Disney won’t be operating it. Just licensing the brand and letting someone else do that. And we all know there won’t be anything offensive to Muslims permitted in the park.
I understand the camel rides will be to die for.
Will the Tranny Godmother be there to greet all the kids at the entrance, like in DW Florida?
Go on the 10/7 ride, see the enemy die! 5 ryials
Try the house of horror where ordinary pizzeria turn into a blood bath! 10 ryials
Watch as brave martyrs destroy entire kafir wedding parties! 15 ryials
NEVER outsource strategic and core to business.
Of course you're correct. And about 2/3 of their operating profit comes from the parks and cruises. ABC-TV is a lost cause - 3 or 4 years ago, they could have off-loaded it for some money, but now it is worth bupkis, zero, nada, null.
I have a long, long history with Disney - read Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse comics as a kid and still have some of them. The nature movies, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Shaggy Dog, and so on.
It truly breaks my heart to watch them pollute Walt's brand that he spent a lifetime building.
Igor is an idiot.
Disney can send their entire woke staff to Abu Dabi....lol
I can hardly wait to see the Bee version of this story.
“will they have a gay day?”
Probably, and a five story hotel with a special roof to go with!!
move it to gaza after the IDF cleans the place out.
there will still be plenty of ready-made geological features for an extensive “Tunnel of Love” (to replace the Fakestinians’ “Tunnels of Killing”)
just don’t fill in some of the terrorist tunnels, convert them instead
