Azizi Developments, a leading private developer in the UAE, is sponsoring the Dubai World Cup Carnival as part of its long-standing pillar partnership with Dubai Racing Club and its master-planned community presence in MBR City, in close proximity to the Meydan Racecourse. As part of this important and prestigious series of events on the international racing calendar, the developer is sponsoring all 9 races of the third meeting, hosted on Friday, the 8th of December 2023.
CEO of Azizi Developments, Mr. Farhad Azizi, commented: “It is with the utmost pleasure and excitement that we sponsor the Dubai Racing Club for the seventh consecutive year. We highly value the Dubai Racing Carnival, the Dubai World Cup, and all their associated events, as equestrianism is a sport deeply rooted in the UAE’s culture and heritage. These gatherings perfectly align with our mission of bringing communities together and placing Dubai, a hub for business, tourism, and innovation, on the world stage, showcasing its countless merits as the ideal host for such high-caliber events. We look forward to a thrilling racing season, and to being part of these happenings for years to come.”
Major General Dr. Mohammed Essa Al Adhab, Executive Director of Dubai Racing Club, welcomed the support from Azizi once again, saying: “We look forward to welcoming our friends at Azizi back to Meydan Racecourse on Friday evening. We’re excited about showing them a competitive evening featuring two important Stakes races. Azizi Developments has been an important partner with Dubai Racing Club for several seasons. We thank them once again for their support and wish their team and guests an enjoyable evening of racing.”
The nine-race card features the Listed Garhoud Sprint, the second leg of the Emirates Sprint Series, worth AED 500,000, an early steppingstone towards the G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen — a double last completed in 2022 by Switzerland. The evening of racing begins with the Group 2 Madjani Stakes, over 1900 meters, showcasing some of the best Purebred Arabians in training in the UAE.
Riviera in MBR City is part of Azizi Developments’ award-winning portfolio. It is a stylish waterfront lifestyle destination that comprises 75 mid- and high-rise buildings with approximately 16,000 residences.
Designed to introduce the French-Mediterranean lifestyle to Dubai, which is not merely about architectural art but also about a certain ‘joie de vivre’ — a celebration of life, an exultation of spirit, Riviera represents a new landmark destination that is both residential and commercial, with an abundance of retail space. Riviera features three districts: an extensive retail boulevard, a lagoon walk on the shores of its 2.7 km-long swimmable crystal lagoon with artisan eateries and boutiques, and Les Jardins — a vast, lush-green social space.
With its strategic location near the upcoming Meydan One Mall and the Meydan Racecourse — home of the Dubai World Cup — as well as Dubai’s most noteworthy points of interest, Riviera represents one of Azizi Developments’ most coveted projects.
Azizi Developments’ Sales Gallery can be visited on the 13th floor of the Conrad Hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road.
