Last year’s edition was the biggest of a beloved annual celebration of family fun in the UAE capital. To give you an idea, MOTN was held across Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Al Dhafra in 2023, and was also extended into January this year to welcome visitors.

It featured thrilling rides, slides, fabulous food trucks and live music, across the Thrill zone with super rides, the Amuse Zone with a diverse range of children’s activities, the Indulge zone with delicious food options including UAE favourites such as Lento, This is Hot Dog, and Ugly Noodle and finally, the Entertain zone, which hosted the Black Eyed Peas for a memorable concert that was packed to the rafters.
