Honestly, the whole Dubai land project is just crazy.. and I’m not surprised that it failed. Also u mentioned that LEGO land Dubai also was canceled, but it wasn’t, it’s actually opened now in a place called “Dubai parks and resorts” just liked to point that out. But great video nonetheless!!

Great video Jake! It would have been interesting to mention that a lot of these projects did get resurrected as Riverland Dubai which is very similar to Dubailand but on a smaller scale. They now have Legoland, Dreamworks, Six Flags (opening next year), a Bollywood park and a Universal style area called Motiongate Dubai.

Nice job on this Jake. I always look forward to watching these!

This was super interesting. I always love all of your theme park stuff, but your Universal episodes are particularly interesting since Disney has such a cult following that a lot of the information is readily available, whereas fewer people make content on Universal, especially content with this quality level. You guys are one of my absolute favorite channels, keep up the outstanding work!

That was so Interesting! Thank you Jake for the awesome video.

I was in Dubai in 2014 and we were driving out to the desert and just in the middle of nowhere was a “Universal Studios” icon arch sign and NOTHING ELSE!! Wish I had taken a picture was so excited at the thought of coming back in a few years to go to it but I guess that’s not happening but I’ll never forget seeing that arch standing all alone.

Next you should do Paramount London! I was disappointed when that plan was cancelled because I live near that area.

Hello Jake, Long time watcher - love your vids. I am a full time hospitality student studying in Florida, and while reading one of my textbooks I came across the now defunct Wannado City, which was an interactive theme park dedicated to kids in Ft. Lauderdale. I'd love to see a video documenting this place as it is SUPER interesting to me. Thanks!

I love these videos!!! I've been waiting so long

Great video as always. I worked out in the UAE for a few years and worked with a number of people who worked on the Dubailand project which did result in Global Village and the Outlet Mall being built but it was well known by the team working on it that funding was really in place for any of it and most admit they didn't expect it to be built. The offices were demolished because a number of Asian labourers were living there because they had become stranded, when companies go bust very low paid staff have no way to get home and visas are canceled so they become stuck and are technically homeless. The site at one point had some parts of coasters and shipping containers of items for the park delivered but they seem to have disappeared. I was told these were never paid for like many things as it often the way there even from govenment held companies who are the worst for ripping off people and companies. The Six Flags project and Lego both came back to life under another company as they had done a lot of design work for Dubailand which they weren't paid for I guess they hoped to recoup the costs. The problem with any themepark in the UAE is it will never be a commercial success as out of around 3m residents 900k are locals, 1m are Indians/Pakistani/Bangladeshi, 400k filpinos and the rest a mix of westerners and other Asians. Many just can't afford to attention the parks in the volumes needed as the Ferrari World has found out and has needed constant injection of cash to keep it running and to stop it looking like a white elephant.
