Ain Dubai, the largest and tallest Ferris wheel in the world, has welcomed its first visitors.
At 2:00 p.m., the opening rotation took place for eager guests who had pre-booked a 38-minute rotation in the state-of-the-art cabins.
The first rotation also included the lucky winners of the Ain Dubai treasure hunt around Bluewaters, which took place earlier this month.
After the sun went down, the fascinating wheel illuminated the sky with a mesmerizing light, a drone and a fireworks show as the world watched the momentous event.
Ronald Drake, General Manager of Ain Dubai, said: “It was a proud moment for us to host such a celebration to officially welcome the world and give so many visitors the opportunity to experience much of what Ain Dubai has to offer.
“We were thrilled by the response from our guests, who loved the incomparable and unforgettable social and festive experiences as well as the entertainment on offer in front of the breathtaking view of the dazzling skyline of Dubai.
« This is just the beginning – we invite everyone to come to the Ain Dubai Plaza for more entertainment today and to book a seat to experience a breathtaking 360-degree view of Dubai in first-class comfort. »
Visitors to Ain Dubai can also enjoy Bluewaters to the full as the ongoing Bluewaters 2021 Street Festival also takes place on the island.
The London Project also celebrated its grand opening this weekend at the foot of the attraction.
