The Dubai Sports City is a $4 billion, 50,000,000 square feet (4,600,000 m2) mixed-use sports city currently being constructed in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The city will consist of apartment
buildings as well as several sports facilities. The first structures
are due to open in late 2007. Many people believed it was going to be
used in Dubai's possible bid to host the 2016 Summer Olympics, but Dubai never submitted a bid.Dubai Properties is master developer of this project for infrastructure . The project expected to be complete in 2011.
Dubai Sports City is a destination of enduring spirit and passion, a
place whose heart and soul is expressed in rich iconography, timeless
rituals and modern heroes. A place where sport is life, champions live,
and legends are made. With over 50 million square feet of sporting
venues, academies, exceptional homes, cultural activities and retail
developments, Dubai Sports City is inspired by the greatest cities in
the world, but at its heart beats the very essence of sport.
The state-of-the-art venues at the heart of Dubai Sports City will form
a new international arena for world-class competition. The venues, each
built to the specifications of the global governing bodies for the
relevant sports, will host major events in football, cricket, rugby,
golf, field hockey, tennis and other sports.
