Mega mall workers hailed

Thousands of construction workers were honoured at a recent celebration at Yas Island’s first mall.

Hosted by Aldar Properties, the event saw 2,000 workers from the Yas Mall build assemble in recognition of their achievements and valued efforts.

“We are very proud of what has been achieved in constructing Yas Mall, none of which would have been possible without the tireless contribution of the workers,” said Mohammed Al Mubarak, deputy CEO of Aldar. “I would like to thank every person who was part of this success, and I invite you all to keep up the momentum for what is expected to change the retail landscape in the region, and will mark out Yas Island as a premier leisure destination.”

Etisalat also showed their support to the event by offering giveaways to the workers.

The event took place in the mall’s Town Square, a communal area that will be used for gatherings and events.

Yas Mall is due to open in November, in time with the 2014 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The mall, which will include a 20-screen VOX cinema and a Funworks family entertainment zone, is billed as the region’s first super-regional mall and an important addition to Yas Island. The retail attraction will add to the island’s list of pre-existing shops, sport and leisure attractions, hotels and restaurants.
