Ferrari World Abu Dhabi is to open to the public for an inaugural period on 27 October, ahead of a grand opening in December.

The new theme park - situated on Yas Island and a celebration of the Italian car company's past, present and future - will feature many Ferrari-inspired rides and attractions, including Formula Rossa, the world's fastest rollercoaster; Fiorano GT Challenge, the region's first dueling rollercoaster; and Speed of Magic, a 4-D experience. Ticket prices range from AED 225 (£38, €45.5) for guests above 1.5m, and AED 165 (£28, €33) for visitors below 1.5m. A Premium Ticket upgrade will give priority on all attractions and access to an exclusive lounge with refreshments, as well as other benefits. All tickets provide unlimited use of the rides and attractions.

The park - the world's largest such indoors - will be operating on a six-day a week schedule from Tuesday to Sunday, opening from midday daily. Ferrari World Abu Dhabi has been developed by Aldar Properties of Abu Dhabi and will be managed by Farah Leisure Parks Management, a joint venture between Aldar Properties and ProFun Management Group.
