Cairo Festival City

Cairo, Eqypt

The premier mixed use development in the satellite city of New Cairo, Egypt, Cairo Festival City (CFC) is now the area’s destination of choice for shopping, dining, and entertainment. Owned and operated by Al Futtaim Real Estate Group, CFC is a 3 million m2 urban community that places equal emphasis on both retail and social experiences. Parks, pathways and plazas have been intertwined throughout the development to enhance and create social opportunities for visitors as they explore CFC’s many amenities.

At the heart of Cairo Festival City lies its biggest social attraction. An expansive modern water feature has been designed to entertain the public with elaborate water and light displays. Surrounded by a horseshoe of retail pavilions and restaurants, the fountain also sits across from an open air amphitheater with space for up to 1200 guests. The amphitheater plays host to live performances and theatrical events, often with the water feature serving as the backdrop.

Not to be outdone by its surroundings, the water feature at Cairo Festival City is impressive in its own right. In addition to LED lights and plume jets, Crystal also provided 42 custom developed Titan jets. These air driven nozzles can shoot water 25 meters into the air and are well served for creating striking sequenced shows.

The water feature and its show-stopping effects helps Cairo Festival City differentiate itself from other competing retail developments by branding it as a memorable destination, all while increasing foot traffic.
