Abu Dhabi’s dazzling new cultural marvel beckons Indian travellers. With summer holidays approaching, Abu Dhabi is becoming a captivating choice for Indian travellers seeking an enriching blend of art, innovation, and leisure. The emirate’s latest cultural gem, teamLab Phenomena Abu Dhabi, recently opened its doors with a spectacular celebration, marking its arrival as a must-visit global attraction.
Located in the prestigious Saadiyat Cultural District—already home to the famed Louvre Abu Dhabi—this new experiential museum blends cutting-edge technology with boundless creativity. Its grand opening turned heads worldwide, not just for its architectural splendour but also for the glittering galaxy of celebrities and dignitaries it drew in.
Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett graced the luminary launch, along with actors Andrew Garfield and Natalia Dyer of Stranger Things fame, DC’s Grant Gustin, Marvel star Pom Klementieff, and The Whale’s Brendan Fraser. Spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, a beloved figure among many Indian followers, also lent his presence to the cultural crescendo.
Music, art, and technology fused seamlessly as world-renowned Italian pianist Ludovico Einaudi performed live, setting an emotive tone. The evening reached awe-inspiring heights with a spectacular show of 6,000 synchronised drones and dazzling pyrotechnics, casting magic into the Arabian night sky and offering a glimpse of the sensory wonders awaiting inside the museum.
