The world’s first Angry Birds World entertainment park has marked its grand opening at Doha Festival City, welcoming guests into Qatar’s unique indoor and outdoor destination.
Home to the world-famous Angry Birds flock, the 17,000sqm "nest brings a riot of fun for the whole family", according to a press statement.
Following the launch of its indoor section last year, the park now "extends the same excitement" to its outdoor section, as part of the second phase.
One of the major attractions is the Super Slingshot.
"At 42m in height, this imposing structure is hard to miss. Themed around the classic bird-flinging gameplay, the slingshot catapults guests more than 60m into the air, offering a truly heart-pounding experience," the statement notes.
Red’s House, as featured in The Angry Birds Movie, will delight guests with its quirky style while indulging little ones in sand play activities.
The Raft Battle takes guests on a voyage from the Bird Island to the Piggy Island in an interactive cinematic experience.
For a hearty dose of thrill, guests can climb aboard the Angry Coaster – a fast and furious ride that twists through the air.
Adventure enthusiasts can head to the park’s City Studio.
The bustling adventure hub allows visitors to test their strengths with a range of activities involving wall climbing, parabolic slides, roller gliders and ropes course.
Once indoors, visitors can enjoy exhilarating rides with Blast Bomb – a drop and twist tower that features free-fall motion from a height of 11m, or Red Alert – a 360-degree spin ride or a laser tag battle.
Amid the range of attractions, the park also boasts of the world’s first indoor/outdoor karting track and The Big Tree – a multi-level creative playground offering a variety of edutainment workshops for little ones, in addition to exciting challenges such as ropes course and zip line.
Visitors can keep the energy soaring at the Trampoline Universe, comprising a basketball court, foam pit and a kids’ court.
Ali bin Mohamed bin Khalifa al-Attia, deputy CEO of Leisure, owner of Trimoo Parks – the company operating the entertainment park, said: “This is a proud moment for us, we are extremely delighted to open our doors to a first-of-its-kind indoor outdoor destination in Qatar and the World. Angry Birds is a universally loved brand, and we are delighted to transform the popular game into a full-fledged entertainment park. Visitors can enjoy a uniquely immersive experience that will delight the whole family – children and adults alike."
"The Angry Birds celebrate their 10-year anniversary this year, but our work has just begun in terms of expanding the brand's footprint and establishing multiple touchpoints with our fans worldwide," said Simo Hämäläinen, head of Brand Licensing at Rovio Entertainment.
"Angry Birds World is a fantastic 'fun for the whole family' attraction that shows the mass appeal of the Angry Birds brand and the joy it brings to people of all ages."
Robert Hall, general manager of Doha Festival City, added: “Angry Birds World is a family favourite and we believe that our visitors will have more reasons to enjoy it with the opening of the outdoor park. Our partnership with Trimoo Parks reflects the confidence of local and international brands in Doha Festival City as a partner of choice, and adds to our portfolio of world-class services.”
With family entertainment at the heart of its offerings, the park is rolling out a host of attractions that "will engage and entertain one and all", including an array of F&B outlets with an exclusive Angry Birds-themed menu, the statement adds.
Further, visitors can celebrate a "spectacular birthday" with two private birthday rooms, while Angry Birds fans can also take home official merchandise from the cluster of retail stores across the site.
