UAE: Expo City Mall To Open in 2024
Dubai will open the Expo City Mall in 2024, featuring a large-scale offering of over 190 shops and F&B outlets. The mall will be located in the Emaar South project. According to reports, in terms of gross leasable area (GLA), it will be 385,000 sq ft, making it one of Emaar’s smaller malls.
Expo City Dubai opened on October 1, 2022, after hosting over 24 million visitors for Expo 2020 Dubai, which ran from October 1, 2021, to March 31, 2022. Expo City Dubai, much like Expo 2020 Dubai, can be reached through the Dubai Metro and does not require an entrance fee. However, some specific attractions within the city may have their own ticketing system.
To promote a sustainable environment, cars will not be permitted on the site, and alternative modes of transportation like buggies, scooters, and bicycles will be available. The use of single-use plastic is also prohibited on the premises, and the buildings will adhere to international sustainability standards to reduce energy and water usage.
Recently, Expo City Dubai also launched the first phase of Expo Valley and Expo Central. The new residential developments will give investors the opportunity to live at the site of Expo 2020 Dubai. Prices start at AED1.2m ($327,000) and properties include amenities aimed at sustainable living and eco-friendly design.
