Modhesh World Burj Khalifa Competition Winner

In pursuit of rewarding its fans and helping families register unique memories, Modhesh World - one of the most popular indoor edutainment destinations in the region – partnered with Burj Khalifa to host a UAE-based family at the iconic tower and experience its popular ‘At The Top’ observatory. Thanks to the winning entry on Modhesh World’s ‘Spot Modhesh ‎Competition’ that ran on its official Facebook and Instagram channels, the family won four tickets to witness spectacular 360 degrees panoramic views from levels 125 and 124 of the world’s tallest building.

The family was personally welcomed by the park’s mascot ‘Modhesh’ who entertained them throughout their time at the venue.

As part of the competition, Modhesh World’s fans were encouraged to take a photograph of the mascot during their visit to Modhesh World and comment with the picture on the post announcing the contest using hashtags #MyModhesh! #touchthesky and #burjkhalifa. The winning comment with the most interesting picture was promised four tickets to experience Burj Khalifa’s ‘At The Top’ service, a popular attraction that draws tourists from around the world.

From over 300 comments on Facebook alone and close to 30 on Instagram, UAE resident Edwin E. Fabon’s entry of her one-year old daughter holding a ‘Modhesh’ soft toy at the park and posing for the camera ticked all the boxes that would make Modhesh smile wider than ever.

After touring some of the highest levels of Burj Khalifa with Modhesh, Edwin E. Fabon expressed delight: “I would like to extend our warmest thanks to Modhesh for accompanying us yesterday to enjoy Burj Khalifa’s ‘At The Top’ experience. We also thank the Modhesh World team. I and my family, especially my daughter Lyra, enjoyed being entertained by Modhesh. This was an early birthday present as we prepare to celebrate her second birthday later this month. Thank you for the amazing experience and the fantastic opportunity.”

Modhesh World runs in Hall 1-6 at the Dubai World Trade Centre until 3rd September 2017. Tickets are valued at just AED 20 and kids under the age of two enter for free.
