MUMBAI: Turner Broadcasting System's Cartoon Network Enterprises (CNE) has partnered with Kuwait's Future Kid Entertainment and Real Estate Company to create a fully branded indoor theme park in Kuwait City. The park will open by the end of this year.

This marks the first CNE venture into branded theme parks within the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region.

Turner Broadcasting System Europe president Jeff Kupsky commented, "This is a timely and exciting deal which puts Turner at the heart of a thriving entertainment industry in the Middle East. The Kuwait City indoor theme park will enable visitors to sample the Cartoon Network experience on a grand scale, and truly interact with our characters and brands."

With more than 3,500 square metres, the park will include Cartoon Network-branded games and rides, character costume events, merchandise areas and promotions with onsite food and beverage outlets.

Cartoon Network Enterprises (EMEA) VP Alan Fenwick added, "We are thrilled about partnering with Future Kid on this project. This deal is the first in a long-term theme park strategy and extending kids enjoyment of Cartoon Network by bringing its characters into the physical world."
