Majid Al Futtaim is opening Snow Oman today (24 December). The largest snow park in the Middle East, Africa and Asia features a ‘desert blizzard’ theme.
Located in the Mall of Oman, Snow Oman covers an area of 14,830 square metres. It offers family-friendly rides including the Mountain Thriller, Roller GliderSnow Bullet, Slide Winder, Cloud Climber, and Zorb Ball.
Oman’s first and only indoor snow destination also features unique attractions, including Cold Town Muscat, Frozen Shipwreck and Lighthouse, as well as Snow Maze and an ice rink.
Like its sister brands Ski Dubai in the Mall of the Emirates and Ski Egypt in the Mall of Egypt, Snow Oman is home to a colony of king and gentoo penguins.
