Winter is here, and Abu Dhabi has a packed roster to entertain people of all ages. Mother Of The Nation (MOTN) Festival is making its grand return, promising a celebration of fun, food and festivities. 

Taking place until 4 January, this year marks the ninth edition of the MOTN Festival. Happening at Abu Dhabi Corniche, this year’s theme is “Out of This World” which will offer a variety of thrilling rides, cuisine and much more. Spanning along the Corniche, it will transform the capital into a playground, making it the ultimate destination to visit this season.

Attractions

MOTN will feature a ton of attractions this year. Much like the last edition, you can expect the Out of This World Museum. Within this museum, you’ll be able to explore the Time Vortex and the Celestial trail, which will both make great posts for the gram. The MOTN Theatre, with live performances, will also be on the agenda to enjoy, along with the Ferris Wheel, promising a great vantage point.

For adrenaline junkies, there’s the galaxy-themed Ninja Kidz Action Park, the 4×4 track, immersive gaming and Big Bounce Arabia. And if you’re feeling extra bold, try the Space Flight Experience, where you can float like an astronaut in an open-air wind tunnel. The Maze of Maybes and a ball pit will also be on site.
