Dubai reveals plans for massive new mall on Al Khail Road
The new mall will feature more than 360 stores when it opens its doors in 2027
Dubai has unveiled plans for Skylight Mall, a colossal super-regional shopping and lifestyle destination on Al Khail Road that is scheduled to open its doors in 2027. Dubai Retail, a subsidiary of Dubai Holding Asset Management, announced this ambitious project, which will add another major retail hub to the emirate, according to the Dubai Media Office.
The anticipated mall will span an expansive 1.3 million square feet of gross leasable area (GLA) and house over 360 stores. Additional details regarding the mall's retail brands, dining options, entertainment, and other attractions are expected to be revealed at a later stage.
This new venture marks a significant expansion for Dubai Retail, which will bolster its portfolio alongside its existing network of 58 malls and lifestyle destinations scattered across the emirate. The project is part of Dubai's growing retail and lifestyle scene, with Skylight Mall slated to debut in 2027.
Dubai is set to see nine new malls and retail hubs in the near future, further diversifying its retail landscape. The city recently announced the opening of Dubai Square Mall, which is expected to come online within three years. Additionally, a new mall in Dubai South is slated to open with a 200,000 square foot footprint, offering lagoon views and open-air walkways.
