Aquaventure World - billed as the world's largest water park - will continue operating normally throughout the offer period. Visitors can experience its record-breaking water slides, enjoy the one-kilometre private beach, and explore the family-friendly marine exhibits housed within the aquarium.

A chance to unwind

Resort officials said the initiative is meant to provide a small but meaningful moment of relief for the community.

As quoted in Connecting Travel, Sascha Triemer, General Manager and Vice President, Aquaventure World at Atlantis Dubai, said,“We are proud to be part of Dubai and its community. If we can offer even a small moment of relief and a few smiles, then we've done something meaningful.”

A limited number of complimentary tickets will be released each day for both attractions during the promotion. Guests can reserve up to four tickets per booking, but reservations must be made in advance for a specific date through the Aquaventure World website.

To confirm the reservation, visitors are required to provide valid contact information and credit card details, although no payment will be charged. The resort clarified that the complimentary tickets are strictly for personal use and cannot be sold or transferred.

Those who wish to add extra experiences or visit outside the complimentary period can still purchase regular tickets through the park's official channels. Visitors are also advised to check Aquaventure World's website and social media pages for updates and availability before planning their trip.
