Falcon's Designs Game-Changing Experiences for Saudi Arabia's First and Region's Largest Water Theme Park
ORLANDO, Fla., May 13, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Company sets new standard for immersive entertainment at Qiddiya Water Theme 
Park with first-of-its-kind rides and progressive sustainability design


Saudi Arabia will soon become home to the country's first and the region's 
largest water theme park that is currently under development at Qiddiya – the 
future Capital of Entertainment, Sports and Culture – situated on the outskirts 
of Saudi capital, Riyadh. Falcon's Creative Group, (

) a sector of Falcon's Beyond, revealed it developed the park's master plan, in 
conjunction with Qiddiya Investment Company (QIC) – the entity driving the 
development of Qiddiya.

With multiple unprecedented themed and immersive water attractions, Falcon's 
master plan for the project alters the vision for future water theme parks. The 
year-round park will span across more than 252,000 square meters and feature 22 
rides and attractions, including nine that will be world firsts. It will also 
be the only water theme park in the world that offers a unique mix of dry and 
wet rides as well as state-of-the-art, competition-level facilities for water 
sports enthusiasts – including the first-ever surfing and white-water rafting 
experiences – as well as 17 F&B and retail outlets.


Visitors will experience nine innovatively designed zones – the Entry Gate, 
Camel Rock, Dub Grotto, Wave Wadi, the Den, Viper Canyon, Arabian Peak, the 
Herding Grounds, and Surf Lagoon – inspired by the native animals that inhabit 
the area around Qiddiya. The experience of each ride will reflect the 
attributes of the creature for which each is named. For example, based on the 
aggressive snake, Viper Canyon will feature some of the most thrilling rides, 
while Dub Grotto, branded for the curious, playful dub lizard, will be home to 
an energetic water playground for children.


"Qiddiya Water Theme Park will be unlike any other existing water park, with 
environments that take guests to amazing locations and an atmosphere that 
enables them to truly escape," said Cecil D. Magpuri, CEO of Falcon's Beyond. 
"We are honored to bring not only deep development experience, including past 
projects in Dubai, but also industry-leading technology prowess to create an 
entertainment experience that is truly game-changing. This is also an exciting 
and unique opportunity for us to participate in the ongoing transformation in 
Saudi Arabia and to set a new benchmark in water theme parks and family 
entertainment for others to follow."


Falcon's has master planned the park in compliance with QIC's sustainability 
practices, including technology that interconnects the structure of certain 
rides, enabling the transfer of water from one body to another, prioritizing 
recycling over waste. Other integrated technologies will reduce water pressure 
for select rides, reducing the amount of water used significantly. Additional 
elements of the park will be built to use 75% less water compared to other 
water park rides, where even rainwater will be captured, treated, and reused.


"By delivering an entirely new type of immersive entertainment experience, the 
Qiddiya Water Park will change the way we think about water parks," said Scott 
Demerau, Executive Chairman of Falcon's Beyond. "Moreover, we believe our 
sustainability approach to its development will set a new standard for future 
parks, benefitting the world around us."


QIC recently awarded a $750 million construction contract to ALEC Saudi Arabia 
Engineering & Contracting and El Seif Engineering Contracting (in a joint 
venture between the two companies) to build the Qiddiya Water Theme Park.


Qiddiya's offering will be based on five cornerstones: Parks & Attractions, 
Sports & Wellness, Arts & Culture, Motion & Mobility and Nature & Environment, 
along with a variety of real estate options and community services. The Water 
Theme Park will be one of the key attractions of the Parks & Attractions 
cornerstone.
