Expo City Dubai

Expo City Dubai is a next-generation urban district in Dubai, purpose-built on the 438-hectare (approximately 4.38 square kilometers) legacy site of Expo 2020. Set within Dubai South, Expo City Dubai sits south of Jebel Ali and near Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), with fast access from Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), Jebel Ali–Lehbab Road (E77) and Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street (D54). The community is also directly served by the Dubai Metro’s Route 2020 Red Line at Expo City station, placing it within easy reach of Dubai Investment Park, Jebel Ali Free Zone, and Ibn Battuta Mall to the north. Known for its sustainability-first planning and car-light core, Expo City Dubai reimagines the world’s fair site into an all-ages residential and business neighborhood. Iconic landmarks—Al Wasl Plaza, Terra (the Sustainability Pavilion), Alif (the Mobility Pavilion), Jubilee Park, the Surreal water feature and Garden in the Sky—anchor a vibrant public realm of shaded boulevards, plazas and parks. The Dubai Exhibition Centre and Rove Expo 2020 hotel keep the area active year-round with conferences, cultural programming and community events, reinforcing Expo City Dubai as a hub for innovation, education and lifestyle. Residential choices in Expo City Dubai blend low-density living with urban convenience. Expo Valley introduces villas and townhouses woven around natural landscaping, lakes and wildlife corridors, while contemporary apartments at Mangrove Residences and Sky Residences in Expo Central offer city views and immediate access to retail, dining and pedestrian routes. Homes are designed around walkability and greenery, with cycling tracks, running paths and micromobility options linking neighborhoods to the heart of the district. The community offers freehold ownership and appeals to families seeking greener living, professionals in aviation, logistics and technology working nearby, and globally minded residents who value a modern, well-connected address. Everyday life in Expo City Dubai is supported by robust infrastructure—district cooling, smart mobility, high-quality streetscapes—and a growing mix of cafes, restaurants and convenience retail around Al Wasl Plaza and the main promenades. Education and healthcare are close at hand, with established schools and clinics in Dubai Investment Park and Jebel Ali (including Greenfield International School, Nibras International School and NMC Royal Hospital DIP) within a short drive. Commute times are efficient: roughly 10–15 minutes to DWC, 20–25 minutes to Jebel Ali, about 25–30 minutes to Dubai Marina, and 40–45 minutes to Downtown Dubai, depending on traffic. Overall, living in Expo City Dubai means inhabiting a forward-looking, pedestrian-friendly environment shaped by sustainability and culture. It offers the space and calm of a master-planned community with the energy of a global destination—an address that balances parks and open skies with innovation, connectivity and a strong sense of place.
