Dubai Parks and Resorts is the Middle East’s largest integrated leisure and theme park destination located on Sheikh Zayed road in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Spread over 25 million square feet,[1] it features more than 100 rides and attractions, and consists of three theme parks: Motiongate Dubai, Bollywood Parks Dubai[2] and Legoland Dubai,[3] and one water park: Legoland Water Park.[4] It also encompasses Riverland Dubai,[5] a themed retail and dining destination, as well as the Polynesian-themed family resort, Lapita Hotel Dubai.[6]

The Dubai Parks and Resorts project was announced in 2012 and construction started in 2014.[7]
