KidZania has announced that six more facilities are ready to welcome visitors, including KidZania Bangkok, KidZania Abu Dhabi, KidZania Santa Fe and KidZania London.

Also joining the 11 KidZania attractions that have reopened since April 2020 are KidZania Guadalajara and KidZania Cuicuilco.

KidZania Bangkok reopened on September 15. Its main objective is to ensure that the ‘new normal’ doesn’t affect the entertaining and educational experience of KidZania.

KidZania Bangkok has implemented hygiene measures including reduced hours, reduced capacity of 50 percent, social distancing, and strict cleaning.

KidZania Abu Dhabi, which reopened on September 26, was granted a permit to reopen following a thorough analysis of the actions taken by the facility at Yas Mall. It is operating with a maximum capacity of 660 people.
