About Arzanah
Arzanah is a 1.4 million square metre fully integrated, mixed use development surrounding Zayed Stadium, offering a unique blend of quality residential properties with leisure, sports and retail amenities, that have been designed by some of the world's finest designers, architects and engineers.

Its prime location on Abu Dhabi island in the Grand Mosque District, is just minutes away from Abu Dhabi city centre, the Abu Dhabi International Exhibition Centre and the Central Business District. Arzanah is easily accessible due to its connection to a comprehensive road network and will be a main gateway along the future planned high speed metro system.

With manicured gardens, a canal and a natural pristine beach, the undulating topography of Arzanah will create a new landscape in the city of Abu Dhabi. Facilities include an exclusive club, a two kilometre stretch of private beach, a picturesque canal flowing through the development, communal gardens and extensive walking and cycling trails.

Two iconic land bridges will connect the main vicinity to a prime two kilometre stretch of natural beachfront, fringed by exclusive luxury apartments, a vibrant boardwalk and beach club.

Residents and visitors will also be able to enjoy a high street shopping experience in a unique open-air climate controlled environment. There will also be a school offering an internationally recognised, high quality accredited education.

In addition to the Zayed Stadium, other sports facilities for residents include the ATP-standard Abu Dhabi International Tennis Complex, the 40-lane world-class Khalifa International Bowling Centre, the Abu Dhabi Ice Rink and a state-of-the-art Aquatic Centre. Arzanah will also be home to the Mubadala-owned Abu Dhabi Knee & Sports Medicine Centre, the first healthcare facility in the Middle East to specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with knee and sports-related injuries.
