Azizi Developments Launches Azizi Milan – The New Fashion Capital of the Middle East
Azizi Developments, one of the UAE’s foremost private developers, has announced the launch of Azizi Milan, a visionary master-planned community inspired by the elegance and timeless beauty of Milan, Italy. Set to bring a touch of Milanese charm to Dubai, this expansive project emphasizes sustainability, nature, and sophisticated design. The grand unveiling event, welcoming over 10,000 attendees, is taking place at Dubai’s Coca-Cola Arena on April 23rd, 2025, with star performances by Tamer Hosny, Nora Fatehi, and Sunidhi Chauhan.
Valued at over AED 75 billion, Azizi Milan will span approximately 40,350,000 sq. ft., making it one of the UAE’s largest mixed-use developments. Designed to accommodate around 144,000 residents, the community will also feature 800 hotel keys.
Mr. Mirwais Azizi, Founder and Chairman of Azizi Developments, said:
“Much like the famed city of Milan, known for its beauty and elegance, Azizi Milan will embody the spirit of Italian living, right here in our home – Dubai. We have put a lot of thought into every detail, thinking about public spaces and community areas as well as creating homes that are as sophisticated and sustainable as they are welcoming. As with our other major projects, we are committed to building world-class homes and infrastructure that elevate the lifestyles of all those who will visit, live and work in what will soon be the classy, tasteful, and sustainable fashion capital of the Middle East. It is His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum UAE Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, who through his unparalleled visionary leadership has nurtured the emirate into the high-in-demand city that it is today, and it is with pride that we will help satiate that demand with our largest-yet community, Azizi Milan.”
Drawing inspiration from Milan’s rich culture and sophisticated style, Azizi Milan is designed with grand arches and thoughtful aesthetics that combine form and function. The community invites future residents to embrace a lifestyle where simple, everyday moments are celebrated. A defining feature will be its pedestrian-only fashion streets, each dedicated to different aspects of the fashion world, such as perfumery, cosmetics, and high-end apparel. These vibrant boulevards will be lined with luxury boutiques, cafés, fine-dining restaurants, and lively entertainment venues, making it a hub for fashion enthusiasts and nightlife seekers alike.
Sustainability is deeply woven into Azizi Milan’s design. To achieve its zero-carbon goals, Azizi will contribute to global environmental projects like mangrove restoration and solar energy developments certified by VERRA and the Gold Standard. Buildings will incorporate green construction methods, and every structure will feature lush rooftop gardens and verdant surroundings, complete with infinity pools amid rich landscaping. Panoramic elevators will offer sweeping views of the community’s gardens, fountains, and sports courts, promoting a strong sense of community and well-being.
Azizi Milan will serve as a self-contained destination, comprising residential towers, a major shopping mall, luxury hotels, retail precincts, office spaces, and vital amenities such as schools, nurseries, mosques, wellness centers, and parks. Its tallest skyscrapers will rise up to 70 stories on the northern edge, gradually transitioning into 25 to 35-story mid- and low-rise buildings that create a serene residential environment.
Strategically positioned along Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), one of the UAE’s major highways linking Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, and Ras Al Khaimah, Azizi Milan offers outstanding connectivity. Future residents will also enjoy the convenience of being within a five-minute walk from the upcoming Blue Line metro station.
