DMCC, a leading international business district in Dubai, has opened The Plaza at Uptown Dubai, a 21,000 sq m open-air space that anchors the district’s masterplan.
Designed to host corporate gatherings, conferences, concerts and large-scale public events for up to 4,000 guests, the venue enhances Uptown Dubai’s ability to convene global industries as the district advances through its next phase of expansion.
Strategically positioned at the heart of the district, The Plaza physically connects Uptown Tower with the wider commercial and residential components of Uptown Dubai, reinforcing cohesion across the community. Equipped with advanced staging, lighting and digital display infrastructure, the venue is designed to support year-round programming and efficient event turnover, strengthening the district’s ability to convene global industries across trade, finance and technology.
Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of DMCC, said: “The opening of The Plaza marks a defining milestone in the evolution of Uptown Dubai, transforming the district into a destination that brings people together through business, culture, and shared experiences. Spanning 21,000 sq m and designed to host up to 4,000 guests, The Plaza introduces a scale and capability that position Uptown Dubai as a premier venue for major international events, as well as everyday community moments. As we continue to advance the Uptown Dubai masterplan, The Plaza will play a central role in activating the district and creating a strong sense of place, supporting Dubai’s vision as one of the world’s best cities to live, work, and visit.”
The opening of The Plaza comes as Uptown Dubai progresses through its next phase of build-out. Two commercial towers, standing at 23 and 17 storeys, are currently under development and will add a combined 62,000 sq m of Grade A commercial and retail space. Once complete, the full district will deliver a total gross floor area of 538,000 sq m, including 232,000 sq m dedicated to Grade A commercial office space. – TradeArabia News Service
