IMG Worlds Celebrates 8th Anniversary with Exciting New Characters in the Adventure Team
IMG Worlds, Dubai’s largest indoor theme park, is marking its eight-year milestone by expanding its iconic IMG Adventure Team with the introduction of two new characters: Leonny, the magnificent Arabian Leopard, and Hogg, the energetic Desert Hedgehog. These fresh additions will join Freddy and Flory, the beloved Arabian Desert Foxes, to further enhance the park's interactive and adventurous spirit. This expansion continues to make IMG Worlds a premier family destination in Dubai.
Each character in the IMG Adventure Team comes with a unique personality and a compelling backstory, reflecting the rich natural heritage of the UAE. As an educational initiative, these characters also shed light on the plight of endangered regional animals, encouraging conservation efforts among young visitors.
After a successful summer filled with adventures, Freddy and Flory are set for new journeys, now sporting fresh custom outfits and upgraded gear. The IMG Adventure Team—with its focus on courage, exploration, and the power of dreams—remains a central attraction, inspiring visitors through immersive storytelling.
Leonny, the Arabian Leopard, embodies grace and strength, while Hogg, the Desert Hedgehog, is the smallest but sharpest member of the team. Known for his incredible memory and navigation skills, Hogg is the group's map reader, deciphering ancient texts and symbols to guide them on their quests.
Commenting on this milestone, Mr. Illyas Galadari, Owner and Board Member of IMG Worlds, said: "As we celebrate eight years of success, we are proud to launch new characters that resonate with the UAE’s environment. This initiative reinforces our commitment to innovation, keeping IMG Worlds at the forefront of Dubai’s entertainment sector."
Mr. Mustafa Galadari, Owner and Board Member, added: "Since our opening in 2016, we have evolved into one of the top attractions in Dubai. The success of these eight years reflects both the dynamic growth of Dubai's tourism industry and the dedication of our creative IMG team."
