Azizi Developments, one of Dubai’s leading developers, will tomorrow launch the global sales for Burj Azizi, the world’s second-tallest tower at 725 metres. The unveiling event, to be held today at the Coca Cola Arena, Dubai to celebrate the occasion, will feature a performance by American superstar Jennifer Lopez and bring together more than 15,000 guests from different walks of life, including government officials, investors, business leaders and diplomats.

The official sales launch takes place tomorrow in several major cities around the world, including Dubai (Conrad Hotel), Hong Kong (The Peninsula), London (The Dorchester), Mumbai (JW Marriott Juhu), Singapore (Marina Bay Sands), Sydney (Four Seasons Hotel) and Tokyo (Palace Hotel). 

Seen as a historic milestone for the real estate developer, Burj Azizi is the realisation of a long-cherished dream of Mirwais Azizi, Founder and Chairman of Azizi Developments. “In Dubai and cities around the world, new projects come up every day,” says Azizi. “But projects like Burj Azizi happen only once in a generation. I feel overjoyed today that we celebrate Burj Azizi’s journey from conceptualisation to launch. Burj Azizi has been a dream of mine for many years.  It has been a tough challenge, with experts from around the world working tirelessly. But I am happy to announce that the dream is now on the path to realisation.”

Among the world records set by Burj Azizi will be the highest observation deck on level 130, the highest hotel lobby on level 111, the highest nightclub on level 126, the highest restaurant on level 122, and the highest hotel room on level 118. At the top, the building will also house a special museum that will showcase the chronology of the building’s evolution, recognising personalities involved through multimedia exhibits, including photo, video and graphics. 

“The importance of Burj Azizi is not just in it is record-setting height or its quality of design and construction but also in the fact that it is being built in Dubai, a city that is today the number one leader in the world in engineering and architecture,” explains Azizi. “In this city of marvellous buildings, Burj Azizi will be a new milestone in innovation and workmanship. Its location on the Shaikh Zayed Road, named after the UAE’s founding father, is a key attraction, germane to the Burj Azizi idea as a legacy for Dubai.”

Scheduled for completion by 2028, the 725-metre-high, 131-plus-storey tower offers a mix of residential, hotel, retail and entertainment spaces. An ultra-luxury mall, home to most high-end fashion brands, will occupy the retail section. The residential section will include luxurious one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. For every 20 floors of residences, a dedicated amenity floor is planned, consisting of swimming pools with sauna and steam room, a fully fitted gym and yoga centre, a spa, a games room including billiard, chess and ping-pong, a business centre, a kids’ play area, a cinema, a restaurant and coffee shop, and a supermarket. Higher up, the luxury apartments will be crowned by ultra-luxury penthouses, ranging from one-to-five-bedroom units with exclusive access to all amenities. Separate lobbies will serve the residences and the penthouse units.

Further along this vertical world is an all-suite seven-star hotel, set to become a major attraction that will take Dubai’s standards of luxury and opulence to new heights. Inspired by seven cultural themes – Arabian, Chinese, Persian, Indian, Turkish, French and Russian – the hotel will offer a new standard in comfort and hospitality, including culturally styled restaurants for each cultural theme.  An authentic Emirati restaurant will be another key feature of the hotel. Moreover, the hotel will include a luxury ballroom and a beach club.

“I extend my deepest gratitude to His Highness Shaikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, for his visionary leadership, and to the Dubai authorities for their invaluable support in making this groundbreaking project possible,” emphasises Azizi. “Burj Azizi is not just a structure; it is a tribute to the emirate’s ever-growing prominence on the global stage. We are honoured to play a role in forming this city’s legacy, one that will prevail for all generations to come."

Global sales for Burj Azizi will begin tomorrow in Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo, London and New York, as well as on online at www.burjazizi.com
