    About Expo City

    Expo City Dubai is what remained after the world left. When Expo 2020 closed its doors, Dubai kept the site rather than clearing it, turning roughly 3.5 square kilometres of pavilions, plazas, and permanent infrastructure into a working city aligned with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan.


    Today it is taking shape as a 15 minute city, planned for around 35,000 residents and 40,000 professionals across five districts.

    The Al Wasl Plaza dome still anchors the centre, the metro runs straight to Downtown and the airport, and Al Maktoum International Airport sits minutes away, set to become the largest airport in the world. Homes here are freehold, and the earliest residential releases are already handing over to owners.

    3. Al Maktoum International Airport is minutes away and is being expanded into what is set to become the largest airport in the world.
    4. The whole city is built as a 15 minute neighbourhood, walkable and cycle friendly, with shaded pathways and low speed mobility throughout.
