Phil Taylor, Managing Director of Dubai-based Team Leisure LLC will discuss “Dubai theme parks: boom or bust?” at the Vision Conference. He said: “The region is also experiencing the construction of 3 major museums and 2 safari parks alongside the record-breaking Meydan One mega-project in Dubai reported to be constructing the world’s longest indoor ski slope, and a host of other world-class attractions by 2020. This is arguably the most leisure development currently underway in one location in the world and is a huge undertaking. But if anywhere in the world has the resources, vision and power to pull it off, I believe it is the UAE.”
Also in the Vision Conference 2015 a “MEGA Projects – An inside View” session will include 3 major UAE developments: Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah (Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority), the Paramount Hotel Dubai (Paramount Hotels & Resorts) and ME Dubai Hotel (Melia Hotels International) with interviews by dmg events Big 5 Editor Gary Wright.
“The Leisure Show Dubai 2015 has various on the floor demonstrations, features and knowledge theatres, really reflecting the increased activity in the sector,” said Christine Davidson, Group Event Director of the dmg events hospitality and leisure portfolio including The Leisure Show. “The varied product range showcased this year includes bowling alleys (Switch Bowling); entertainment and adventure playground equipment (HPS Middle East and AlQaisar); pool tables and accessories (Interpool); golf simulators (X Golf); pools, spas and saunas (Aqua Middle East); and much more.”
The Vision Conference takes place 28-30th September 2015 at the Dubai World Trade Centre, part of The Hotel Show and The Leisure Show, the only events dedicated to cater to the thriving hospitality and leisure industry in the Middle East and Africa.
