The official website of Dragon Ball announced on March 22, 2024, that Saudi Arabia-based Qiddiya Investment Company will be constructing the world’s first-ever Dragon Ball theme park as part of its Qiddiya giga project.

Spanning an expansive 500,000 square meters, the park will feature seven distinct areas meticulously designed to recreate iconic locales from the series, such as Kame House, Capsule Corporation, and Beerus’ Planet.

The excitement doesn’t stop there. The theme park will boast over 30 attractions, including five state-of-the-art rides. A centerpiece attraction will be a towering 70-meter-high Shenron, the wish-granting dragon, housing a large-scale roller coaster within its structure.

Moreover, the Dragon Ball theme park will also feature fully stocked hotels and restaurants, allowing fans to extend their experience and immerse themselves in the world of Dragon Ball for an entire day.

Dragon Ball is a Japanese media franchise created by Akira Toriyama in 1984. The initial manga, written and illustrated by Toriyama, was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 1984 to 1995, with the 519 individual chapters collected in 42 tankobon volumes by its publisher Shueisha.

Toriyama’s manga was adapted and divided into two anime series produced by Toei Animation: Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z, which together were broadcast in Japan from 1986 to 1996. Additionally, the studio has developed 21 animated feature films and three television specials, as well as two anime sequel series titled Dragon Ball GT and Dragon Ball Super.

Twenty animated theatrical films based on the Dragon Ball series have been released in Japan. The most recent films, Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods (2013), Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’ (2015), Dragon Ball Super: Broly (2018), and Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero (2022), were produced as full-length feature films and were given stand-alone theatrical releases. They’ve also been the first movies to have original creator Akira Toriyama deeply involved in their production.
