Cinecittà World is a theme park located in Rome, Italy. With the creation of the sets by Dante Ferretti it is made up of 40 attractions, 6 shows staged in theaters and outdoors and 7 thematic areas developed on a total area of 300,000 m2. This theme park is famously known for its "Temple of Moloch" entrance, which was replicated from a 1914 silent film, Cabiria.
History
The Park was created on the initiative of the entrepreneurs Luigi Abete, Aurelio De Laurentiis, Diego Della Valle, and, since 2016, Stefano Cigarini.
It includes the water park Aqua World, opened in 2019 as thematic area of Cinecittà World and which will become a separate water park in the future. In 2020, the Roma World experiential park opened, with a hotel-campsite. Cinecittà World stands on the grounds of the old Dinocittà film studios, built in the sixties by Dino De Laurentiis, of which there are studios and some buildings converted to host indoor shows and attractions.
The park officially opened on 24 July 2014.
