Burj Azizi, the planned skyscraper by Azizi Developments on Dubai’s Sheikh Zayed Road, will reach a height of 725 m, making it the world’s second tallest tower when built, according to the developer.

The 131+-storey skyscraper will launch for sales in February 2025, and is scheduled for completion by 2028. It will feature a unique all-suite seven-star hotel inspired by seven cultural themes, alongside residences that include penthouses, apartments, and holiday homes.

Burj Azizi will also offer a range of amenities, such as wellness centres, swimming pools, saunas, cinemas, gyms, mini markets, resident lounges, a children’s play area, and more.

Moreover, the tower, which will be the only freehold property on Sheikh Zayed Road, will include a vertical retail centre spread over seven floors, a luxury ballroom, and a beach club. Additionally, Burj Azizi will boast a one-of-a-kind observation deck and an adrenaline zone, as well as several world record-breaking features: the highest hotel lobby in the world on Level 11, the highest nightclub on Level 126, the highest observation deck on Level 130, the highest restaurant in Dubai on Level 122, and the highest hotel room in Dubai on Level 118. The tower will also feature numerous high-end F&B options.

Founder and Chairman Mirwais Azizi said: “Our investment in Burj Azizi, surpassing AED6 billion ($1.63 billion), represents more than just the creation of an iconic structure — it is a commitment to transforming Sheikh Zayed Road and elevating Dubai’s skyline to new, unparalleled heights.”
