The partnership is not merely a symbolic gesture but part of Dubai’s broader strategy of fostering strong relationships, both within its public and private sectors. It builds on the longstanding partnership with Emirates since 2011 and aligns perfectly with the upcoming Real Madrid-themed park at Dubai Parks and Resorts, the largest theme park destination in the Middle East. The park, set to be the world’s first Real Madrid-themed park, will feature attractions such as a museum, amusement rides, football skill games, food and beverage outlets, and retail spaces selling official Real Madrid products.
