Cairo Festival City

In the late 1990s, Egypt's government allocated approximately 700 acres (2.94 million m2) of land in New Cairo to Al-Futtaim. Al-Futtaim formally announced plans for Cairo Festival City in the mid-2000s. Construction officially began in 2008 and the complex was opened in 2010. Residential and commercial phases, including Oriana Villas, Festival Living apartments, Aura residences, and the Business District office complex, were gradually completed between the late 2010s and early 2020s. Over the years, Cairo Festival City has hosted concerts by musicians such as Angham, Faia Younan, Omar Khairat, Souad Massi. ==Facilities==
