About the area

About Expo City.

Expo City Dubai is the community created on the former Expo 2020 site, next to Dubai South and Al Maktoum International Airport.

The Expo 2020 station on the Red Line’s Route 2020 branch already serves the site, and road access is via Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Expo Road. A master plan for the city was approved in 2024.

Several pavilions and landmarks remain, including Al Wasl Plaza, alongside parks, cycling routes and a regular calendar of events. Sustainable design runs through the plan. New residential neighbourhoods are being built by Expo City Dubai itself and by Emaar, so some amenities are open today and others are still planned.

GEMS Founders School Dubai South, a British-curriculum school opened in 2024, is in neighbouring Dubai South, with further options in Dubai Investments Park. Expo City is freehold for international buyers.
