Location
Sports City Dubai FAQs
Dubai Sports City is a residential and sports district next to Motor City, built around cricket, golf and other sports facilities. The homes are apartments, with a growing amount of newer stock around the original towers.
It is inland, near Motor City and the Arabian Ranches side of Emirates Road. Residents drive. It is not on the Metro. Victory Heights and Motor City are the neighbouring communities.
Apartments in mid-rise towers make up the residential stock, including buildings around the cricket stadium and the canal. There is no villa community inside Sports City itself. Nearby Victory Heights is the villa alternative.
The draw is the sports facilities and the lower apartment prices than the beach communities. Retail is more limited than in JVC or the Marina, so residents drive for a larger shop. Check parking and the chiller arrangement for the specific tower.
