Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum City - District One by Meydan Sobha is an exclusive and elegant lifestyle community set amidst natural surroundings in the heart of one of the world’s leading cosmopolitan cities. District One is located minutes away from Downtown Dubai; a premier destination for those that aspire to live extraordinary lifestyles. From mosques and schools to premium retail brands, F&B outlets and supermarkets, District One gives you access to everything you need for modern living. Unveiled at Cityscape two years ago with a ground-breaking ceremony held on March 15, 2017, the iconic Meydan One Mall will offer the finest shopping and leisure opportunities just a few minutes away from your doorsteps. Featuring an incredible retractable roof, Meydan One Mall will be home to flagship retailers and premium boutique outlets as well as over 90 restaurants, cafes and kiosks that promise a vast selection of fine dining and retail experiences.
With 620 retail shops including two major department stores and a 131,150 square foot hypermarket, its smart technology and features including a retractable skylight will redefine shopping, leisure and entertainment destinations. High-end luxury brands will have a specially designated shopping strip at the 1,315 foot long Central Canyon, directly accessible from the road.

The unique retractable skylight, measured 160 metres by 100 metres, will set Meydan One Mall apart from other retail destinations, offering al fresco dining and shopping to the thousands of visitors.
The largest dancing water fountain in the world will act as just one of the Mall’s main attractions, measuring 380m long, while the one-kilometre indoor ski slope will become the most popular spot for skiing and snowboarding enthusiasts in the region. Participants can escape the heat any time of year by enjoying an adrenaline-filled day in the snow, or enjoy the whole weekend at 4 and 5-star hotel rooms and apartments that are directly connected to the venue and live the snowy winter experience without ever leaving the Middle East.
