Thrills Meet Learning at Ferrari Workshop on Yas Island
Arabian Post Staff -Dubai Miral is set to launch an interactive Ferrari-themed workshop on 21 June at Cinema Maranello in Ferrari World, Yas Island, offering young learners an immersive glimpse into automotive engineering and innovation. Open to participants aged 10 and above, the two-hour session will feature hands-on demonstrations, a quiz, and an exploration of Ferrari's technical journey—all crafted to ignite curiosity and build skillsets in a dynamic setting. Leading the workshop, Miral positions it as a continuation of their education and skill‑development pillar, part of the group's broader corporate social responsibility initiatives aimed at nurturing future generations across Abu Dhabi. The session begins with an engaging overview of Ferrari's storied past and technological breakthroughs. Participants will then transition to practical segments where they can engage with scaled-down engineering modules, deepen their understanding through interactive quizzes, and test their abilities in dynamic challenges designed to simulate real vehicle systems. ADVERTISEMENT The venue, Cinema Maranello, is nestled within Ferrari World—the world's first Ferrari-branded theme park, home to record‑breaking attractions including Formula Rossa, Flying Aces, and Mission Ferrari. Spanning over 40 rides in a climate‑controlled environment, the park is a flagship asset in Miral's immersive entertainment portfolio. Miral emphasises community engagement and knowledge transfer through this workshop. Registration is mandatory and limited; family attendance is encouraged, broadening the event's appeal beyond just the learning participants. The event will run from noon to 2 pm, ensuring ample time for both instruction and hands-on involvement. This Ferrari-themed educational initiative aligns with broader patterns in youth development programming across Yas Island. Over the last year, Miral has hosted a variety of skill‑based events, from eco‑conscious upcycling workshops to digital storytelling and STEM camps. These have targeted children aged from as young as eight through their teens, integrating creativity with sustainability and technical learning. Ferrari World has steadily expanded its appeal as a learning hub. Family‑friendly attractions like the Junior Grand Prix, Junior Training Camp, and Made in Maranello tour blend entertainment with educational value, providing toddlers and teens alike with engaging, instructive experiences. Miral's broader strategy emphasises diversification of cultural, recreational, and educational offerings across Yas Island and Saadiyat Island. It continues development of projects such as the Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi, a dedicated Harry Potter land in partnership with Warner Bros. World, and integration of digital innovation through alliances like those with Microsoft and Azure OpenAI Service. Marta Zaabi, CEO of Miral, described the Yas Island learning ecosystem as 'a continuously evolving platform where curiosity meets creativity,' demonstrating a focus on nurturing curiosity in diverse ways across the island. The upcoming Ferrari workshop exemplifies Miral's intent to merge hands-on education with its entertainment credentials. By leveraging brand prestige and technical cachet, the event speaks to a growing trend in learning-by-doing experiences, targeting youth engagement outside traditional classroom settings. The event's orientation toward engineering aligns with regional priorities to bolster STEM education and practical skill development in alignment with the UAE's broader educational agenda. Although the workshop is free, spaces are limited to ensure both safety and quality of engagement. Miral has stressed the value of early registration, noting the family-friendly nature of the workshop and the likelihood of high demand given Ferrari's iconic status and the interactivity of the experience.
