20th Century Fox World was announced on 3 November 2015, when 20th Century Fox and Al Ahli Holding Group made their licensing deal to build the theme park for $850 million, while 20th Century Fox World in Malaysia was also in development.[1][2]
On 29 April 2018, the park was put on indefinite hold by the Al Ahli Group amid concerns from its CEO Mohammed Khammas that there was a "serious supply" of theme parks in Dubai.[3]
On 8 October 2020, Fox Corporation announced that 20th Century Fox World is under construction.[citation needed]}}
