Azizi Developments has announced its largest project to date — Azizi Milan, a master-planned community inspired by the elegance and heritage of Milan, Italy.

Covering 40 million square feet, the Dhs 75 billion development will house over 81,000 homes and accommodate a population of around 144,000 residents.

The official launch, held at Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, welcomed over 10,000 guests and featured performances by Tamer Hosny, Nora Fatehi, and Sunidhi Chauhan.

Inspired by Milan

Azizi Milan brings Italian sophistication to Dubai with bold arches, landscaped rooftops, infinity pools, and scenic panoramic elevators. Inspired by Milan’s cultural richness, the community is designed as a hub for both everyday life and fashion-driven experiences.

A key highlight is its pedestrian-only fashion streets, each themed around a unique element of style—from perfumes and cosmetics to handbags and high fashion. These vibrant streets will be home to boutique retail, dining venues, and international fashion events.

A Sustainable city

Azizi Milan is designed as a zero-carbon community, integrating green building practices, landscaped rooftops, and extensive greenery across podiums and public spaces. The project supports global sustainability efforts through carbon offsetting via certified mangrove, forest, and solar initiatives.

Every building features rooftop gardens, and residents will enjoy canals, water features, sports courts, and wellness spaces, making Milan not just beautiful, but also community-focused and environmentally conscious.

Location

Situated on Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), Azizi Milan offers easy access to all major Emirates. It is also just a short walk from a future Blue Line metro station, providing seamless connectivity for residents and visitors alike.

High-rise towers up to 70 stories will define the skyline, while mid-rise buildings and a central canal will shape a more tranquil, livable environment.

Founder’s vision

“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,” said Mr. Mirwais Azizi, Founder and Chairman of Azizi Developments.

“As with our other major projects, we are committed to building world-class homes and infrastructure that elevate lifestyles… It is with pride that we will help satiate that demand with our largest-yet community, Azizi Milan.”

Following the success of Azizi Riviera in MBR City and Azizi Venice in Dubai South, Azizi Milan reflects the developer’s vision of delivering fully integrated communities. As master developer, Azizi will oversee the project’s road networks and infrastructure to ensure a cohesive and efficient urban layout.

Azizi Milan is positioned not just as a place to live—but as a destination where fashion, culture, sustainability, and modern living converge in one dynamic, self-sustaining city.
