Mubadala Launches Bold Al Maryah Waterfront Transformation in Abu Dhabi

Mubadala has commenced construction on a transformative new phase of Al Maryah Island, unveiling a waterfront enhancement project that redefines urban public space in Abu Dhabi. At the heart of the redesign is a 30-metre luminous sphere, set to become one of the capital’s most recognizable landmarks.

The Future of Water: AI Meets Art

This stunning new centerpiece will be encircled by over 1,000 AI-powered water jets, capable of shooting water 75 meters into the air. Designed by global water feature specialists WET, the display will be synchronized to a custom score by Emmy-nominated composer Ramin Djawadi, known for Game of Thrones. Together, light, water, and music will offer a sensory experience never before seen in the region.

Bringing the Waterfront to Life

Beyond the sphere, the project includes a reimagined boardwalk, bringing visitors closer to the water’s edge. The enhanced promenade will feature:

• Climate-responsive shaded zones

• Outdoor seating and gathering spaces

• Water-integrated dining terraces

• Event-ready open spaces

These additions aim to make Al Maryah Island a year-round destination for residents and tourists alike.

Redefining Urban Luxury in Abu Dhabi

This development marks a major evolution for Al Maryah Island, home to:

• The Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM)

• Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi

• The Galleria luxury mall

It’s part of Mubadala’s broader mission to position the island as the capital’s hub for finance, healthcare, retail, and lifestyle.

Strategic Growth with Global Appeal

According to Mubadala, this waterfront project reflects a deep commitment to Abu Dhabi’s long-term urban vision. It supports:

• Cultural tourism

• Public engagement

• Investor confidence

• Sustainable urban living

The immersive water experience and enhanced amenities will be a magnet for footfall and elevate Al Maryah Island’s status on the international map.
