Dragon-filled delights
At MOTIONGATE Dubai, the How to Train Your Dragon zone is designed to capture the spirit of the beloved franchise. Families can step into the fully themed world of Berk, participate in interactive Viking training camps, and meet fan-favourite characters like Toothless, Hiccup, and Astrid. Kids and adults alike can embark on quests, fly through the air on the Dragon Gliders coaster, or enjoy the swinging thrills of the Viking-themed rides.
The theme park’s focus on indoor experiences ensures comfort during the summer heat. Adventurers can dive into the world of dragons, enjoy spectacular live shows, and uncover surprises around every corner – all while staying cool.
Tastes of Berk
For those looking to refuel Viking-style, the Dragon Flame Grill offers bold and spicy dishes, hearty curry options, and juicy shawarma. Guests can also enjoy sweet relief from the heat with scoops of ice cream at the nearby kiosk.
No visit is complete without a stop at Hiccup’s Workshop. The shop offers themed merchandise including quirky stationery, unique accessories, and franchise-inspired apparel – perfect for taking a piece of Berk back home.
