Dubai, UAE – Riverland’ Dubai, the multi-themed dining and retail destination located at the heart of Dubai Parks and Resorts, today released the first pictures of its newly filled river that will be home to a brand new entertainment scene just outside the city.  

Spanning across one-kilometre, water is slowly rising in the river as works continue to fill it up completely ahead of the opening on 31st October 2016. Once open to the public, visitors can go on relaxing boat rides along the river and enjoy lunch or dinner on its banks in one of the four uniquely theme zones that bring to life different eras of the past: The French Village, Boardwalk, India Gate, and The Peninsula.

Riverland’ Dubai will connect the three theme parks and water park at Dubai Parks and Resorts, and will open to everyone with or without a ticket to the adjoining parks, which means it will be experienced by every visitor to the destination.  It will feature more than 50 restaurants and retail shops, coupled with planned street theatre and entertainment, making it the perfect place for families and friends to come together, relax and recharge.
