Mattel Park will be part of the grand VAI Resort in Glendale. Attractions and themed areas will be dedicated to the Barbie doll, Hot Wheels cars, He-Man and other Mattel characters.
In the Barbie area there will be a “Wardrobe of Dreams”, where Barbie will come to life with the help of modern hologram technology and help you choose the perfect wardrobe, as well as the “Barbie Flying Theater”, where visitors will be able to see the most interesting places visited by the famous doll, for example, in outer space or underwater.
