Overview
Dubai Festival City Mall stretches along the Creek with an outdoor promenade and the nightly IMAGINE projection show on the waterfront. The retail mix is broad, from flagship brand stores to a large hypermarket, and the cinema and dining offer give it genuine leisure credentials. Popular with families and expats in the eastern and creek-side communities.
