A car park at Dubai Mall has officially closed — here's what to know
One of the world's biggest malls has announced that a major parking area has now closed. As of Monday June 16, Grand Parking P1 and P2 at Dubai Mall have temporarily closed as part of the mall's ongoing expansion plans. With 694 parking slots, Grand Parking is the smallest of four car parks at the world's busiest mall. The car park, which can be found on the Financial Street side of Dubai Mall, has closed ahead of the opening of New Grand Drive in August. Fashion Parking, Cinema Parking and Zabeel Parking remain open, and shoppers are encouraged to park there instead. Earlier, Dubai Mall had also revealed that several internal roads and access points have been closed or redirected as part of the expansion plans. If your route includes the Lower Financial Exit Ramp or the Upper Financial Exit Ramp then you'll now need to find an alternative way of getting there. Anyone who uses Grand Drive Valet services will also need to keep this in mind when visiting the mall. Traffic for these access routes will be rerouted via Grand Drive and Cinema P3 during the closure. Visitors are encouraged to follow signage in place and to allow extra travel time. Last year, Dubai Mall introduced paid parking for the first time. A ticketless parking system using vehicle plate recognition now deducts fees from Salik accounts of drivers. The mall smashed its own attendance record in the past year with more than 111 million visitors arriving through the mall's doors in 2024. (Credit: Dubai Mall) Dubai Mall is currently home to more than 1,200 retail spaces, including two anchor department stores in Galeries Lafayette and Bloomingdale's, and more than 200 food and beverage outlets. In 2024, Dubai Mall operators Emaar also announced plans for a massive Dhs1.5 billion expansion, which will bring a whole host of new shops and restaurants to the site. It is unclear whether the expansion plans that require the temporary closure of Grand Parking and the closure of access routes are part of the plans announced last year.
