Massive Middle Eastern Malls

Dubai Square Will Be the Size of 100 Football Fields

— July 31, 2018 — Art & Design
Dubai is no stranger to expansive and luxury structures, but the upcoming Dubai Square mall will dwarf all other shopping experiences in the city. Occupying a massive 30 million square feet, Dubai Square spans over 100 football fields and has dedicated spaces for retail, hospitality and residential areas. The expansive location will be handled by Dubai Holding as well as Emaar Properties.

Dubai Square will be located in the heart of the Dubai Creek Harbour and is part of an ambitious proposal to drive the principal of "omnichannel retailing." This concept aims to be a seamless blend of shopping via desktop, mobile or retail store. This initiative will be exemplified at the mall as it features custom-designed mobile apps, quick checkout solutions and much more.
