Dubai:

Modhesh World, one of the most popular indoor edutainment destinations in the region, opened its doors to an action-packed day for the long Eid Al Fitr holiday in the UAE, as families from across the globe thronged to the amusement facility to celebrate the festival. The new season of Modhesh World located at the World Trade Centre, Dubai, saw children enjoy an array of exciting mix of adventurous rides, arcade and redemption games, live performances from their favourite characters, a newly-introduced food park and a plethora of other attractions that had them spoilt for choice. All activities in the new season are arranged in four zones, ensuring that each part of the expansive park exudes a distinct flavour of fun and entertainment:

• Road to Future — Taking visitors ahead of time through Virtual Reality (VR), workshops and other thrills.

• Show Town — An entertainment hub bringing some of the best international and local performances along with the iconic smiling mascot ‘Modhesh’ meeting, greeting and entertaining his guests.

• Back to Nature — Getting a feel of the outdoors and indoors through exciting activities.

• Amusement Street — Giving visitors a feel of thrilling experiences to explore their inner child.

Fun and games during the joyous occasion of Eid are a precursor to more exciting activities lined up for Modhesh World in the upcoming days, and one of them is the visit of multi-talented Arab sensation Tamer Hosny, the Egyptian singer, actor, composer, director and songwriter, who will grace the amusement park located on June 29. The visit will also provide an opportunity to speak about his new film “Tisbah Ala Khair”.

Suhaila Saqer Obaid Ghubash, Director, Festivals and Events, Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE), said: “The turnout and response on the occasion of Eid Al Fitr has been phenomenal, and now, we can barely contain our excitement to welcome Tamer Hosny at Modhesh World. This will be an exciting opportunity for families, children and the media to meet with the superstar up and close.”

She added: “Tamer Hosny’s visit also reflects the journey of Modhesh World. In a span of 18 years, this entertainment property has evolved into a complete entertainment hub that focuses on fun for children but also engages with other members of the family. It is a place where games, entertainment and education intersect, and with this high-profile celebrity visit, it will also be celebrated as a place where you can mingle with your silver-screen heroes and role models.”

Modhesh World opens its doors from 10am to 10pm from Saturday to Wednesday; on Thursday from 10am until midnight and on Friday from 12pm to 1am. During Eid holidays the amusement park will be open from 10am to midnight,
