Something strange—and spectacular—is coming to Yas Island. Beginning November 14, fans can step through the gates of Hawkins, Indiana, as “Stranger Things: The Experience” makes its Middle East debut. The hit Netflix series comes to life through immersive sets, live actors, and incredible special effects, letting guests live out their own supernatural adventure in the world of Stranger Things.
Stranger Things Yas Island: A Global Phenomenon Arrives in Abu Dhabi
Following sold-out runs in New York, London, and Paris, this all-new version of Stranger Things: The Experience will take over Yas Island, transforming it into a cinematic journey through the beloved sci-fi universe.

Every detail has been carefully crafted to blur the line between the real world and the supernatural. Expect live performances, interactive missions, and audiovisual effects that make you feel like you’ve walked straight into the series.
The Experience: From Hawkins to the Mix-Tape
The adventure doesn’t end when you escape the Upside Down. Visitors will emerge into the vibrant Mix-Tape area, a nostalgic celebration of 1980s pop culture. Here, fans can grab themed food and drinks, snap photos in retro-inspired sets, and shop for exclusive Stranger Things merchandise, from Hawkins High apparel to limited-edition collectibles. Also, of course, there will be plenty of Easter eggs for sharp-eyed fans to discover. Whether you’re Team Eleven, Team Dustin, or rooting for Steve’s hair, you’ll find something to love in this nostalgic finale to your Hawkins adventure.
