Changzhi Acrobatic Troupe entertained United Arab Emirates residents at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, the first and leading Ferrari theme park in the world, during the park's Chinese New Year celebrations from Feb 1 to 9.

It’s the fifth annual Chinese New Year celebrations held by the Ferrari-branded theme park.
