The wait may finally be over for Ain Dubai fans. The world’s tallest observation wheel, standing at 250 meters, could soon spin back to life. This iconic landmark, located on Bluewaters Island, has been closed since March 2022 for maintenance, leaving visitors eager for updates. Now, recent developments suggest its long-anticipated reopening may be just around the corner.
Recent video footage and eyewitness accounts reveal that Ain Dubai has been gently turning, sparking excitement among locals and tourists alike. While the motion is minimal, it has reignited speculation that this colossal steel structure may be undergoing final preparations for its grand reopening.
Adding fuel to the rumor mill, a new ticket kiosk has appeared at The Wharf Mall on Bluewaters Island. Though still under wraps, the kiosk prominently features Ain Dubai branding, with signs indicating where future visitors can purchase tickets. However, no official date for ticket sales has been confirmed yet.
The official Ain Dubai website maintains its previous statement, confirming the attraction remains closed “until further notice” as enhancement works continue. While no concrete details about reopening are available, the website teases “new and exciting offers” for when it finally welcomes guests again.
Even during its closure, Ain Dubai has played a starring role in Dubai’s dazzling celebrations. It has been the canvas for extraordinary fireworks and is set to feature prominently in December’s Dubai Shopping Festival. This year, visitors can look forward to a daily drone show with a spectacular performance involving skydivers and pyrotechnics on December 13.
For now, fans can only speculate, but the signs are promising. With its unmatched views of Dubai Marina, JBR, and the Arabian Gulf, Ain Dubai may soon reclaim its place as one of Dubai’s must-visit attractions. Stay tuned for more updates as this beloved landmark inches closer to reopening.
