4. Playin’ On Yas with Disney on Ice

The Yas Island is by far one of the BEST attractions that Abu Dhabi has to offer. The Etihad Arena hosted the opening weekend performances of Disney On Ice presents Find Your Hero, and it was SPECTACULAR. This is the BIGGEST event to take place in the UAE since March 2020 (following all mandated safety protocols) and why wouldn’t it be?

Kids get a chance to see their favourite characters from the Disney Empire, like Elsa, Mickey Mouse, Maui, Donald Duck, Pluto, Goofy, etc. come to life right in front of their eyes. Parents can join in on the fun and become a child at heart once again! Only 6 performances are remaining between September 9 – 11, so go get tickets for you and your tiny tots.
