Dubailand Marvel & Six Flags


Here are links to two press releases about the Six Flags and Marvel Theme Parks going in to Dubailand.

The Six Flags article is pretty much fluff, here's the link if you want to read that one. The Six Flags park, with 30 rides and attractions, will break ground in 2009 and open in 2011.

The Marvel park, however, has plenty of new information available from its release. The park will be split into three areas, City Centrum, the HUB, and The Marvel Academy. They also say that three of the park's rides - Flying With Spidey, Fantasticar, and X-Men: Danger Room - are already testing offsite.

The park will have 17 rides and attractions, and will open at the very end of 2012. Interestingly, that means though the Six Flags and Marvel parks will break ground at the same time, roughly, they will open a year (or more, depending) apart from one another. We know what that means for the Six Flags park - but hopefully that means that the Marvel one will be detailed and require that much extra time.
