Zombie Apocalypse Park Set to Open in Dubai in 2020

This one is definitely not for the faint-hearted.

Dubai is home to a range of world-class theme park attractions and is adding a brand new theme park to its pool. A giant zombie-themed entertainment zone is expected to open in mid-2020 at The Night Market at Deira Islands. Spanning 65,000 square foot, the Zombie Apocalypse Park (ZAP) will be a spookfest and fantasy land for residents who love a good scare.

The first of its kind in the UAE, ZAP will feature live acts, challenges, escape games and events all powered by glow-in-the-dark technology to set the mood. Other exciting attractions to look forward to include paintball, a VR 9D cinema, a haunted maze, target shooting, laser tag, zombie runs and more.
