Saudi Arabia's First Dragon Ball Z Theme Park: What We Know So Far

14 Apr 2024

Saudi Arabia is making waves in the world of entertainment and theme parks with its exciting plan to create the very first Dragon Ball Z theme park as part of the expansive Qiddiya project. It was announced late in March this year, and we have gathered everything we know so far about this exciting new attraction.

Location

The theme park is set to open in Riyadh — more particularly, a new vibrant capital city named Qiddiya City. Spanning over 360 square kilometres and boasting more than 400 attractions, from golf courses to water parks, the new park will be a Dragon Ball Z fan's greatest dream.

Attractions and experiences

While the park's exact features are still under wraps, it will likely offer a range of experiences to delight fans of all ages.

The upcoming Dragon Ball Z theme park promises meticulously recreated settings from the beloved anime series, over 30 themed rides, and seven distinct areas to explore from Kame House, the Capsule Corporation and Beerus’ Planet.

Five of the rides at the Dragon Ball Z theme park will be “world firsts,” including a 230-foot-high roller coaster named Shenron, named after the series’ magical dragon.

Don't be surprised to see live shows and performances that bring characters like Goku and Vegeta to life in front of your eyes.

Opening and impact

The company behind the theme park has not disclosed an opening date yet, but construction on the colossal project is expected to commence soon. And anticipation is building.

Driving this ambitious vision is Vision 2030, championed by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, which aims to attract 150 million tourists annually by 2030.

For fans of Dragon Ball Z, this park offers a unique opportunity to dive deep into the world of their favourite anime. Whether you are a long-time fan or just discovering the series, the park promises to be a fun and memorable destination for all.
