The hoarding has gone up around the area that will become the third phase of Al Shaheed Park and there are a bunch of renderings showing what will eventually be built there. I also have some PDFs dating back to December 2018 showing the plan for Phase III so combining whats in the renderings and the PDFs, here is what Al Shaheed Park Phase 3 might contain:
Outdoor cinema and amphitheater
Clock fountain
Kids shaded playground
Mountains playground
Maze garden
Outdoor skate and BMX park
Outdoor parkour and sky trail
Karting
Extreme sports building
Ice skating rink and snow park
Indoor Skydiving
I don’t have any info on when Phase 3 will be completed but, if its anything like the other Al Diwan Al Amiri projects, expect it to be done in around 2 years’ time. You can download the PDFs I have from this link.
Update: Added indoor skydiving to the list above and you can check out some renders of the park here.

The ice rink looks amazing. Better than the piece of crap everyone was crying about.
its called maintenance. The old one was actually a very beautiful thought-out design. It was very loved and heavily used. If this country insists on consistently building new things and tearing down the old, the same will happen to this one.
I’m not talking about maintanance, and no it was an ugly design. There is no historical significance to the building except memories for a group of millenials.
lol what? If thats the case then we might as well demolish the Kuwait Towers since there is no “historical significance” to the building, nor is there any “historical significance” to the water towers or Green Island or countless other important landmarks around Kuwait.
What are you talking about? I never brought up Kuwait towers. The fact that you are lumping Kuwait towers with the ice rink only shows you have no idea about historical significance. How do you compare Kuwait towers and water towers, which are symbols even on money, to an ugly box of concrete? I will be happy to change my mind if you convince me of its importance other than the fact that you skated there when you were a teen.
You didn’t have to bring up Kuwait Towers, you just said ice skating rink wasn’t historical so should be demolished but Kuwait Towers isn’t of historical significance either in that case. Kuwait Towers isn’t on our currency because of it’s historical significance, the Kuwait Towers is younger than me!
The reason the Kuwait Towers are on our currency is because they’re an important “landmark”. Thats also what the ice skating rink was, it was a landmark.
PS: The ice skating rink wasn’t “a box of concrete”, the structure was made up of wooden beams to convey the form of a tent and the outside walls were covered with terracotta tiles inspired by the Sadu pattern. It was also the first ice skating rink in the region so if anything, it had more historical significance than the Kuwait Towers.
Sorry I cannot continue this conversation with someone comparing the ice rink to kuwai towers. Cheers.
it’s more like you realized you shot yourself in the foot with your historical significance remark
It was actually a very thought out design. Do a little bit of research and you’ll know.
Today you think that Ice Skating Rink was ugly and not historically valuable, in 10 or 20 years your kids will think that the Towers are ugly, National Assembly is ugly and Souq Mubarakiya is an old junk yard. They’ll just demolish it all and built something new, yay!
The Eiffel tower was once considered as a hideously ugly “factory chimney”…
BMW Park? Can’t wait to see that.
oops
Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini and Maclaren Park also will be there… 🤣🤣🤣🤣
An outdoor cinema? In this heat? The outdoor facilities in Boulevard are hardly used.
Summer isn’t the only season in Kuwait. We have 6 months easily where we can use an outdoor cinema.
I’ll gladly watch a movie outside at night from September to May… That makes 9 months!
I live in Canada! You mention snow & I gag!

Definition of hoarding (Entry 2 of 2)
1 : a temporary board fence put about a building being erected or repaired
— called also hoard
I’m happy it was demolished along with Al Sawaber which were a sight for sore eyes . Yes it was well constructed however neglected and not properly maintained . Again there are still many historical buildings in Kuwait which remain beautiful and well kept . As the saying goes out
with the old and in with the new !!!
‘A sight for sore eyes’? Think you mean an eyesore
Whe need something for the 8 months of summer
I wish they have a dog park
Wow Mark,
It looks to be an innovational phase. Many different features. But no water feature like the previous one? Did they start execution
? Who are the contractors?
Will it have a skate park?
