    While there will be no white Christmas in the UAE, children can still soak up the holiday spirit and enjoy an artificial snow fight at Yas Marina this weekend.

    The Abu Dhabi venue has been transformed into a winter destination as part of its ‘Let it Snow’ celebrations and one of the most popular attractions has been the artificial Snowball Zone.

    Since opening on December 11, hundreds of children have visited the venue, playing with snow and going home with a smile on their faces. And with the attraction closing next Saturday, there’s still time to see for yourself why it’s earned rave reviews from parents and kids.

    “The Snowball Zone has been really popular since the Let it Snow celebrations began,” said Cedric Le Rest, General Manager at Yas Marina. “We know there will be no white Christmas in the UAE but we have done our best to ensure the children do not miss out on the snow as it’s a very important element of the festive period.

    “It’s great to see many children enjoy this activity and it’s always a popular attraction every year. Children can expect plenty of fun and excitement and the atmosphere will be very festive as we’ve made the place as white as possible.”

    The Snowball Zone is open daily until Saturday, January 2, from 12:00 to 19:00. Entry costs Dh30 per person for a 15 minute session.
