Abu Dhabi sets the stage for stunning events. From state-of-the-art conference halls to elegant hotels, venues in the emirate cater to every occasion. But if you’re looking for the extraordinary, one that’ll have your guests buzzing about it for years, you’ll want a place that delivers on capacity, amenities, and convenience. One such venue is Ferrari World™ Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.
Ferrari World™ Yas Island, Abu Dhabi is the first of its kind in the world.
The Ferrari-branded theme park features the Formula Rossa, which travels at 240km/h in 4.9 seconds. It’s the world’s fastest roller coaster. The electrifying, record-breaking ride is a crowd-drawer for adults who are coaster enthusiasts, but the theme park also has thrilling rides for kids. From Formula Rossa Junior to Junior Grand Prix, there are plenty of kid-friendly rides in the theme park.
Bearing this in mind, Ferrari World Yas Island™ has the attractions that’ll turn your usual birthdays, anniversaries, and any other milestone into an unforgettable celebration.
The theme park is massive, and most of it is indoors. But it’s divided into five zones, which focus on specific experiences. You can choose to explore these on your own or book a Ferrari World VIP Experience, which is a curated package that gives you exclusive access to the park’s experiences with a tour guide.
The main area for the theme park’s special events, live performances, and other activities. The Welcome Plaza is also where you can find the shop for souvenir shopping.
Adventure play areas, interactive games, and simulators — you’ll find them all here. Your family can also take a leisurely break at the Espresso Rosso, an Italian coffee bar located in this zone.
This is where you’ll find thrilling rides (including the Formula Rossa) for both kids and adults, with each ride offering the experience of what it might be like to be an F1 racer.
The Adventure Zone features the Turbo Track, a zero-gravity ride, the World’s First Ferrari Esports Arena, and a tire change experience. It’s also where you’ll be able to do the Drive a Ferrari experience with a Ferrari-trained instructor.
If you can’t travel to Italy, Ferrari World’s Italian Zone might provide another way to experience the popular European country. You can take a virtual tour of Maranello, the home of Ferrari, take an exciting ride on the world’s first sideways coaster drop, play with remote-control boats and cars, and a whole slew of other fun activities.
Clearly, you’ll have numerous activities when you arrange your event at Ferrari World™. But organizing special celebrations takes more than having a variety of entertainment options.
For group bookings, an events manager can help you get organized. This professional support from the theme park is especially crucial if the event is corporate. Maybe you want to launch a new product or service. Maybe you need to introduce your startup to investors in a splashy event.
A dedicated events manager can handle the details, so you’ll be free to mingle. The events manager may also be able to arrange a special experience for certain guests who want to get behind a Ferrari or go on a Roof Walk Experience.
Food can make or break any event. It’s important to not just serve the right kind of food, but also to have enough of it. Great food and drinks can influence how guests experience your event. They contribute to the overall ambiance and even inspire conversations, enhancing social interactions.
Ferrari World has a wide variety of dining options, not the least of which is Italian cuisine. The Abu Dhabi theme park is home to six restaurants, each offering authentic food and warm hospitality.
You can get the in-house team to serve trattoria-style food, from authentic pasta and pizzas to food from Mamma Rossella. Try the Arabic, Indian, and Western cuisine from Il Podio. For more casual events, consider the burgers, fresh salads, sandwiches, and meaty shawarmas from Officers Food Quarters.
Some events are intimate, with just a few invited people, and others have a long list of guests. When your celebration is looking more like it’s going to need a bigger venue, Ferrari World has the space. Its gala space can accommodate more than 1,500 people.
Most events, from birthdays to anniversaries, might unfold in a similar way. There might be dancing, a program, followed by the meal. But events at Ferrari World™ can be unique because of the attractions and rides you can include.
From signing up the older kids for the Karting Academy to arranging a VIP Experience for a few special guests, the special activities can make your event an unforgettable one.
