What Meydan is like

The large development zone around Meydan Racecourse, south of Downtown Dubai. Lagoon-side apartments, villas and dozens of new towers from many developers, with little public transport.

Meydan is the broad area around Meydan Racecourse, home of the Dubai World Cup, in Nad Al Sheba about 16 minutes' drive south of Burj Khalifa. Meydan Group planned it as a master community, and it now forms part of the wider Mohammed Bin Rashid City. In practice it is several separate districts rather than one neighbourhood: the villas and townhouses of District One, the apartment blocks of Meydan One, Meydan Avenue and the new tower plots of Meydan Horizon.

The largest single project is Azizi's Riviera in Meydan One, a community of mid-rise apartment buildings along a boulevard and a man-made lagoon; Azizi's site showed prices from AED 1.22 million in November 2026 and Property Finder listed at least nine Riviera buildings still to complete in 2027. Around it, plots have been sold to many smaller developers. Property Finder counted 73 new and off-plan projects in Meydan in November 2026, among them Verso by Reportage and Chavelle by Imtiaz in Meydan Horizon.

The attraction is position and price. Al Khail Road and Ras Al Khor Road run past, Downtown and Business Bay are within about 20 minutes, and apartments cost less than in those districts. The area draws investors buying studios and one-bedroom flats and families renting or buying villas in District One.

The drawback is how unfinished and car-dependent it is. Bayut's guide names limited public transport as the main weakness; the nearest metro is Business Bay station. Azizi's site refers to a future Gold Line metro station near Riviera, but the pages we read gave no opening date.

Suits

  • Investors buying smaller apartments below Business Bay prices
  • Families looking at villas near the city centre
  • Buyers who drive and want quick access to Al Khail Road
  • Those comfortable with a district still under construction

In its favour

  • About 16 minutes by car from Burj Khalifa and 20 from Dubai International Airport (Bayut area guide)
  • Direct access to Al Khail Road and Ras Al Khor Road
  • Lower apartment entry prices than Downtown Dubai or Business Bay
  • Meydan Racecourse and the Meydan Hotel at its centre
  • Wide choice of projects and developers, including lagoon-side communities

Worth knowing

  • Very large pipeline: 73 new and off-plan projects on Property Finder in November 2026, many from smaller developers whose delivery record needs checking one by one
  • Limited public transport and no metro station in the area today
  • Delivery risk: Property Finder showed Azizi Riviera Rêve at 63% complete in December 2025 against an original delivery date of October 2024
  • The districts are separate and not walkable between each other; judge the specific sub-community, not the Meydan name
  • Construction traffic and unfinished plots will be part of daily life for several years, especially in Meydan Horizon
  • Azizi Riviera alone is described by Property Finder as 69 mid-rise buildings of studios and one- and two-bedroom flats, so similar units compete for the same tenants

Meydan: questions buyers ask

Is Meydan freehold?

Yes. Bayut's guide describes Meydan City as a freehold area, and Property Finder lists current projects such as Verso and Azizi Riviera 68 as freehold.

Is there a metro in Meydan?

Not today. The nearest station is Business Bay on the Red Line, a short drive away. Azizi's website mentions a future Gold Line station near Riviera, but we found no opening date on the pages we read, so do not buy on the assumption of a metro.

What is the difference between Meydan One, Meydan Horizon and District One?

They are separate parts of the Meydan area. Meydan One is the apartment district that includes Azizi Riviera. Meydan Horizon is a newer zone of tower plots sold to various developers. District One is a villa, townhouse and apartment community. Each has its own access, character and price level.

What do off-plan apartments cost in Meydan?

On 12 November 2026 Azizi's website showed Riviera from AED 1.22 million and Riviera Rêve from AED 2.35 million. Property Finder listed one-bedroom flats at Verso in Meydan Horizon from AED 1.6 million.

Which developers are building in Meydan?

Current developments we cover in Meydan are by Azizi Developments, LEOS Developments and Ellington Properties.

What are property prices in Meydan per square foot?

Published figures for Meydan: AED 2,050 per sq ft for all homes (average sale price per sq ft; Property Finder, from registered transactions, 12 months to 12 November 2026, 1,818 sales). Averages move with the mix of homes sold, and asking prices usually sit above prices paid. Compare areas in our price per sq ft table.

What is the rental yield in Meydan?

The published average gross rental yield in Meydan is 7.04% for all homes (Property Finder, from registered transactions, 12 months to 12 November 2026, 1,818 sales). Gross yield is before service charges, empty months, management and fees, so the net figure is lower: work it out for a specific home with the rental yield calculator, or compare areas on rental yields by area.

What is the average rent in Meydan?

The average annual rent on new contracts in Meydan is AED 73,787 for all homes (Property Finder, from registered tenancy contracts, 12 months to 12 November 2026, 9,025 contracts). That average mixes studios with larger homes, so ask for the rents achieved on comparable units before relying on a figure for one property.
