The world’s first and only Dragon Ball theme park is officially in development, with the first images revealing how “visitors will be able to join an adventure with Goku and pals.”
The official Dragon Ball website announced that the Saudi Arabia Qiddiya Investment Company will be constructing the world’s first and only Dragon Ball project as part of its ‘Qiddiya’ giga project. “The Dragon Ball theme park will boast a whopping size of over 500,000 square meters and feature seven different areas that recreate various iconic locales from the original series, such as Kame House, Capsule Corporation, and Beerus’s Planet,” the site states. Readers can check out the concept art and first trailer for the Dragon Ball theme park below.

Dragon Ball Super’s “Super Hero Saga” has just wrapped up, and enlightening details from Toyotarou reveal that Akira Toriyama wrote most of the story.

The site continues, “At the park, visitors will be able to join an adventure with Goku and pals as they enjoy the world of Dragon Ball, from the very beginning of the anime all the way up through Dragon Ball Super! This theme park will feature five state-of-the-art rides as part of a lineup of 30+ attractions! And if that wasn’t already exciting enough, construction of a 70-meter-high Shenron is also planned, with this landmark containing a large-scale roller coaster inside! In addition, there will also be fully stocked hotels and restaurants available at the park to enable fans to immerse themselves in the world of Dragon Ball for an entire day of fun.”

Dragon Ball’s Theme Park Will Be One of the World’s Biggest

At over 500,000 square meters, the Dragon Ball theme park will be among the largest in the world. Meanwhile, its location in Saudi Arabia is proof of Dragon Ball‘s global popularity and an example of producer Akio Iyoku’s plans when he said that Dragon Ball must continue to challenge the status quo as an IP. The franchise joins the long-running Chibi Maruko-chan and Ghibli Park as rare anime IP to receive a dedicated theme park.

The release of Dragon Ball Super Chapter 103 not only ends the Super Hero arc but also serves as an emotional farewell to the late Akira Toriyama.

Fans can relive the Dragon Ball franchise on Crunchyroll, which has ramped up its anime offerings alongside rival Toonami. The former describes the series: “Goku—the strongest fighter on the planet—is all that stands between humanity and villains from the darkest corners of space. Joined in battle by the Z-Fighters, Goku travels to distant realms in search of the magic powers of the seven Dragon Balls!”
