The development will also feature Zaha Hadid Architects’ futuristic 2,500-seat opera house, alongside a 400-seat theatre, an exhibition hall for up to 2,000 visitors, and a dedicated performing arts academy — forming part of a Cultural District that aims to make Dubai South a creative hub for performing and visual arts.
Redefining Lifestyle and Cultural Living
