In Dubai, everything is possible, from being able to ski in the middle of the desert, eating dinner 50 meters in the sky and now you can play football in the ocean. Puma, the global sports brand has collaborated with Dubai’s Sports Council as part of their initiative 30×30, creating a unique and iconic football pitch off the shore of Palm Jumeirah.

To commemorate the opening, Puma’s brand ambassador and world record holder, Usain Bolt visited the arena on Monday, November 21, to enjoy a friendly game alongside paralympic athlete Felix Streng.
