Dubai Festival City, Mixed-use development complex in Dubai Creek, United Arab Emirates
Dubai Festival City is a large mixed-use neighborhood on Dubai Creek that combines apartments, office towers, and hotels with a three-level shopping center. The mall contains over 400 stores and dining venues spread across its floors.
Development began in 2003, transforming Dubai Creek's waterfront from undeveloped land into a modern neighborhood. The project reshaped this riverside area with new buildings and public spaces over the following years.
The IMAGINE show takes place at Festival Bay with synchronized water fountains, light displays, and music that create an evening spectacle. Visitors come here to experience this free outdoor entertainment that draws crowds throughout the year.
The area sits near a boat dock where traditional boats depart toward the nearby metro station. Getting around is easy whether you walk within the development or use public transport connections.
Festival Tower is an office high-rise with waterfront views located just minutes from the international airport. Its proximity to downtown business areas makes it unusually convenient for work travel.
