Picture this: a place where kids can let their imaginations run wild, parents can actually relax, and world-class dining meets epic playtime. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, pinch yourself because Leo & Loona Kids Park has officially landed at Yas Mall, and it’s everything you never knew you needed in a family entertainment destination.
A Grand Opening Like No Other
February 22nd, 2025, was not just another day on the calendar—it was the day Yas Mall became home to the most immersive family playground in the region. Leo & Loona threw a Grand Opening bash that could rival a Hollywood premiere. Think dazzling lights, mind-bending illusions, and the kind of entertainment that keeps kids grinning from ear to ear. The legendary illusionist Moein Al Bastaki had guests questioning reality, while Leo & Loona mascots made sure no little visitor left without a smile (or, let’s be real, at least ten adorable pictures).
Not Just a Play Area—A Whole New World
Spanning a jaw-dropping 2,620 square meters (that’s bigger than 10 tennis courts, by the way), Leo & Loona is far more than just a playground. It’s an entire universe where storytelling meets state-of-the-art technology. With over 30 attractions and seven themed zones, kids can dive into interactive learning while having the time of their lives. Whether it’s zooming down glow-in-the-dark slides, testing their pedal-powered go-karting skills, or unleashing their inner artist in one of ten creative workshops, there’s never a dull moment.
Dream Big, Play Bigger
For the little dreamers out there, Leo & Loona has the perfect escape. The Princess Room is straight out of a fairy tale, where kids can dress up and twirl their way into a royal fantasy. Meanwhile, future grocery store moguls can test their entrepreneurial skills in the Supermarket Role-Play Zone, stocking shelves and running their own mini business. (Parents, don’t get any ideas—this won’t translate into them voluntarily helping with actual grocery shopping.)
Lights, Camera, Action!
One of the biggest highlights? The Show & Toons area, where kids can watch their favorite animated films on the big screen, take part in fun interactive contests, and enjoy exclusive show programs featuring Leo & Loona themselves. It’s like a mini Broadway production, minus the need for formal attire. And for those extra special occasions, private banquet rooms are available to make birthdays and celebrations truly unforgettable.
Michelin-Star Magic on a Kid’s Menu? Yes, Please!
Now, let’s talk about food—because let’s be honest, after all that playing, both kids and parents will need some serious fuel. Enter Michelin-starred chef Kasper Kurdahl and renowned brand chef Zsolt Pleszinger. These culinary masterminds have crafted a menu that blends Italian and American favorites with a Middle Eastern twist. It’s a rare moment when kids’ meals aren’t an afterthought, but here, dining is as much an experience as the park itself. Finally, a kids’ menu parents will actually be excited about!
A Grand Opening to Remember
Leo & Loona didn’t just open their doors—they threw an unforgettable party. From a glow-in-the-dark dance extravaganza to an exclusive cooking workshop with the park’s star chefs, families were treated to a first-class experience. And let’s not forget the high-energy fashion show where little princes and princesses strutted their stuff in dazzling outfits. If confidence could be bottled, that runway was overflowing with it.
And the Excitement Doesn’t Stop There…
As if launching Abu Dhabi’s ultimate kids’ destination wasn’t enough, Leo & Loona decided to take it up a notch with an Instagram giveaway. Three lucky families will win a 1-Year Free Pass to the park—cue the happy dances!
The Future of Family Fun
Leo & Loona is no stranger to creating magic. With 21 parks across Russia and two already thriving in the UAE, they welcome over 2.5 million visitors annually. And they’re just getting started. With plans to expand to 30 locations across the GCC, Leo & Loona is on a mission to redefine family entertainment. Next stop? Dalma Mall, Abu Dhabi, by the end of spring.
Oh, and did we mention? They hold the prestigious Grade Golden A rating, the highest food safety distinction awarded by Dubai Municipality. Because top-tier fun deserves top-tier safety.
A Place That Feels Like Home
“Leo & Loona isn’t just a park—it’s a place where kids can be kids, where imagination has no limits, and where families create unforgettable memories,” said Pavel Kovsharov, Owner of Leo & Loona Kids Park. “Every child who steps through our doors becomes part of our journey, and we’re honored to welcome them into this magical world.”
So, parents, brace yourselves—because once your kids experience Leo & Loona, you might just find yourselves with a new weekend tradition. Ready to embark on the ultimate family adventure? Yas Mall is calling, and trust us, you don’t want to miss out!
