Disney plans to add a new theme park to its portfolio, with the entertainment giant revealing Wednesday that it intends to open one in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the coming years.
Disney’s new theme park will be constructed on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, the capital city of the UAE, according to the company.
The theme park in Abu Dhabi "will offer signature Disney entertainment, accommodations, unique dining and retail experiences, and storytelling in a way that celebrates both the heritage of Disney and the futuristic and cultural essence of Abu Dhabi," Disney said.

UAE-based entertainment and leisure developer Miral will take on the development and operation of Disney’s Abu Dhabi theme park. Disney and its "Imagineers" will provide "creative design and operational oversight" for the project.
