Ain Dubai’s temporary closure period has been extended until first quarter of 2023, an official statement said.
“We have been working rigorously to complete the enhancement works over the past months. Once a reopening date is set, a further announcement will be made,” a statement on the attraction’s official website said.
“In line with our commitment to offering guests an experience unlike any other, we look forward to introducing new and exciting offers when we re-open Ain Dubai for visitors to enjoy from across the globe,” it added.
The world’s largest and tallest observation wheel had first announced its closure in March for “enhancement works”, saying it would be closed throughout the month of Ramadan.
At the time, its reopening had been planned for the Eid Al Fitr weekend. But as per the latest update, another announcement will be made once a reopening date is set.
Ain Dubai, which had opened to the public on October 21 last year, sits at the heart of the unique, must-visit lifestyle destination, Bluewaters, where the charm and exclusivity of island living meets the exuberance of a sophisticated urban lifestyle.
At 250 metres, it’s almost twice the height of the London Eye. The observation cabins of Ain Dubai offered visitors the perfect vantage point for 360-degree views of Dubai – over the waters of the Arabian Gulf. Featuring 48 luxurious cabins, each could carry up to 40 guests.
One complete rotation of the wheel takes 38 minutes.
Ain Dubai has quickly become recognised as one of the Middle East’s most remarkable landmarks which has elevated the aesthetic of Dubai’s skyline. The opening of the attraction supports Dubai’s long-term strategic vision to strengthen its global position as a key tourism hub and builds on its reputation as a leader in the global leisure and entertainment landscape.
