Experience a breathtaking ride in the world's largest and tallest observation wheel, Ain Dubai.

Standing at over 250-meters tall, the record-breaking monument offers unforgettable social and celebratory experiences as well as 360-degree views of Dubai in premium comfort at the heart of Bluewaters, officially opened to the public on 21 October with a spectacular drones and fireworks show.

The giant observation wheel is an amazing feat of construction, with each leg of the wheel standing 126m high-long enough to fit 15 London buses - while the weight of the assembled hub and spindle is equivalent to four A380 aircraft.

The wheel carries up to 1,750 passengers in its capsules and provides views of Dubai Marina and landmarks such as Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah, and Burj Khalifa. "Ain Dubai offers unique experiences catering to all audiences, including luxurious special event cabins; nightlife and party occasions; unique dining and culinary options; family-friendly cabins and customizable romantic experiences for special moments," said Ronald Drake, General Manager of Ain Dubai.

Ain Dubai represents another addition to Dubai Holding's extensive entertainment portfolio and supports Dubai's long-term vision to strengthen its global position as a key tourism hub, continuing to build on the emirate's reputation as a leader in the global leisure and entertainment landscape, as set by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai..
