Emaar Unveils AED 200bn “Dubai Estate” — a City for 150,000 Residents

On 12 June 2026, Emaar founder Mohamed Alabbar announced one of the largest single private-developer projects in UAE history: “Dubai Estate,” an AED 200 billion (~$55 billion) master-planned community designed for around 150,000 residents across 4.5 million square metres of built-up area.

What we know

The community is planned across five zones — a business district, an urban core, a young-families quarter, a family community and a luxury villa enclave — and is billed as a “20-minute city” with metro connectivity and smart mobility, positioned to offer views of Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab and Palm Jumeirah.

What’s still unconfirmed

As of early July 2026, Emaar had not published detailed pricing, exact plot location or a phasing timeline. For off-plan buyers, that means watching for the first release: a flagship launch of this scale from Emaar typically resets area pricing and opens a long pipeline of new inventory.
