When people think of Al Ain, images of forts, gardens, and the famous zoo often come to mind. In the heart of the city stands Bawadi Mall, which opened in 2009 and is now Al Ain’s largest at 140,000 sq. m. More than a retail destination, it blends shopping, dining, leisure, and family entertainment under one roof. With 400+ stores, dining outlets, and entertainment zones, Bawadi Mall offers a full-day experience.
Enter to find broad walkways lined with global brands like Zara, Mango, Marks & Spencer, along with jewelry, electronics, and home décor stores. Its main beauty, however, is its entertainment. Families flock to the Fun City arcade, the 12-lane bowling alley, and the Grand Cineplex, which screens the latest films with state-of-the-art technology.
Thrill-seekers won’t be disappointed either - Bawadi Mall brings amusement park vibes indoors with an ice rink, rollercoaster, and fun rides. For families with kids, it truly feels like a kingdom of excitement.
No shopping trip feels complete without food, and Bawadi Mall has plenty to offer. The food court features over 30 outlets, from global fast-food chains to regional restaurants. For a slower pace, there are sit-down cafés serving coffee, desserts, and international cuisines.
Scattered lounges and cozy rest areas provide the perfect pause between shopping and entertainment, while free Wi-Fi and comfortable seating areas make it easy to relax or stay connected.
Being fully air-conditioned, the mall is a comfortable escape any time of year. Weekends are livelier, with events and family crowds, while weekdays offer a calmer pace. Visiting in the late afternoon or evening lets you extend the day with dinner and a movie, turning it into a complete outing.
The mall frequently hosts seasonal events, cultural festivals, and kids’ activities, so it’s worth checking the official event schedule before your visit.
Bawadi Mall is well-located for those wanting more in their itinerary. Al Ain Zoo is just 15 minutes away, while Al Jahili Fort and Al Ain Oasis offer cultural charm nearby. For relaxation, the Green Mubazzarah Hot Springs at the foot of Jebel Hafeet are less than 30 minutes away.
Travelers don’t need to go far for accommodation. Ayla Bawadi Hotel, directly connected to the mall, is the most convenient choice. Other nearby options include Radisson Blu Hotel Al Ain and Al Ain Rotana, both offering excellent services and easy access to the city’s attractions.
Bawadi Mall is not just shopping bags and food courts, but a venue where one can have fun, comfort, and family memories. And, with Captain Dunes, you move with ease, allowing hassle-free transfers and an itinerary that combines the mall and the cultural sites of Al Ain.
It can be shopping, entertainment, or leisure - we make your day easy, thrilling, and memorable.
