On Tuesday, the Government of Dubai Media Office confirmed on Twitter that the 250-meter-high observation wheel would open later this year.
The observation wheel, which will be located on Bluewaters Island, is set to be the world’s largest, with each glass-enclosed capsule rising up to 820 feet in the air and offering 360-degree views of the Dubai skyline.

The following was also posted on the attraction’s Twitter account: “BIG NEWS! Ain Dubai is loaded & almost ready to roll! The time is coming to see Dubai from new heights!”
The structure is more than 200 percent taller than the original observation wheel. It will tower over the 167-metre-high High Roller in Las Vegas and the 190-metre-high New York Wheel planned for Staten Island in New York City.
