June 2021: The Galleria Al Maryah Island, the premier lifestyle and shopping destination in Abu Dhabi, surpassed 2.7 million visitors for the month of May 2021; the highest monthly footfall attained to date.

This new record was the result of an eventful month that included Ramadan and Eid activations and offers; Chef Studio live culinary masterclasses in Central Kitchens and the “Celebrate with a World of Flavours” dining campaign; the opening of ever popular Toys ‘R’ Us and two luxury boutiques, Rolex and Saint Laurent. The month concluded with a three-day Super Sale weekend with amazing discounts of up to 80 percent on some of Abu Dhabi’s favourite brands.

Commenting on the month’s success, David Robinson, General Manger, The Galleria Al Maryah Island, said: "The record footfall in May 2021 is evidence of The Galleria Al Maryah Island’s prominence as the most popular mall to visit and meet friends in Abu Dhabi. We continue to work hard to deliver memorable and entertaining experiences for our guests all while maintaining a healthy and safe shopping environment. The result is an increasing number of guests who want to experience the best that Abu Dhabi has to offer.”

Robinson, continued, “Our success at The Galleria would not been possible were it not for the strength of our offering and the agility of our team to continue to evolve the guest experience. We see this positive trend continuing throughout summer with the anticipated increase of tourism into Abu Dhabi.”

Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and capacity restrictions, The Galleria remains the community’s preferred safe shopping destination. Due to the increase in footfall, security and ongoing sanitisation measures were heightened throughout May.

With exclusive brands, fine and casual dining options, and world-class entertainment for all ages, The Galleria is the ultimate destination for residents and visitors to the capital, all year round. Visitors of The Galleria are advised to play their part by wearing face masks, observing social distancing markers, store capacity limits, sanitising hands, and opting for contactless payments. .
