Mutsoev added that Dream Island “will become the undisputed leader of the national entertainment industry due to its unique concept and high socio-economic significance”.

“Our project will also become a significant driver for the development of the city’s infrastructure, one of the main leisure spaces for visitors of all ages, as well as a world-class tourist attraction.”

Dream Island is home to more than 15 cafes, restaurants and food trucks serving themed F&B. It also houses 11 shops selling souvenirs, toys, homeware, jewellery, clothes and accessories.

In addition, the theme park has a city promenade with the building facades inspired by Barcelona, Beverly Hills, London and Rome.

In the second phase of the project, the embankment will be improved and additions include a modern hotel, a children’s yacht school, and a banquet and concert hall.
