Ferrari World Abu Dhabi returned to the Arabian Travel Market (ATM) expo for the third year running this month, announcing plans to move to a seven-day operational model later this year.

The world's largest indoor and only Ferrari-branded themed park arrived at the expo to showcase to the regional and global travel industry the unique leisure offering it adds to the UAE's premiere leisure hotspot: Yas Island.

"There's been a growing demand for a continuous entertainment offering and the appeal of Yas Island as a leisure destination is now even higher," said Andy Keeling, park manager at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi.

"With its combination of two mega theme parks, Ferrari World Abu Dhabi and Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi, a wide range of excellent hotels, a world-class golf course, a racing circuit and a concert arena hosting world class musical events, Yas Island has really upped its entertainment portfolio.

"To meet this growing demand, Ferrari World Abu Dhabi – which normally closes on Mondays – will be open every day starting in the fourth quarter of 2013, making us a 365-day-a-year operation," Keeling said.

"We are sure that visitors, as well as representatives from the travel industry, will find this an even better proposition that takes our proven success story further."
