Fine & Country partners with Azizi Group to launch Burj Azizi – The second tallest tower in the world

Fine & Country Dubai and Fine & Country Mayfair are proud to announce an exclusive partnership with renowned developers Azizi Group to launch Burj Azizi, a ground breaking architectural marvel set to redefine luxury living. Towering at an astonishing 725 meters, Burj Azizi will be the second tallest tower in the world, boasting an array of world-class amenities and setting multiple global records.

Scheduled for a global launch on 19 February 2025, Burj Azizi will be unveiled at eight prestigious hotels worldwide, including an exclusive event at The Dorchester in London. Following this, Fine & Country Dubai and Fine & Country Mayfair will host a dedicated showcase at the Park Lane office in Mayfair, London on 20 and 21 February, where investors can view the only physical model of the tower available in the UK and Europe.

Fahad Syed, CEO of Fine & Country Mayfair, commented: “We excited to announce the exclusive launch of Burj Azizi, a landmark development in Dubai, right here in the heart of London. This prestigious project exemplifies the epitome of luxury and innovation, setting new standard for opulent living and world-class design. It is not just a development, but a vision brought to life, where architectural brilliance meets elegance. With its exquisitely designed residences, state-of-the-art amenities panoramic views, Burj Azizi stands as a beacon of sophistication and modernity in Dubai’s skyline.”

Unparalleled luxury and world records

Burj Azizi is designed to be a soaring sanctuary above the city. The development will include:

  • A 7-star luxury hotel
  • The highest lobby in the world
  • The highest occupied hotel room
  • The highest cinema in the world
  • The highest nightclub in the world
  • The highest observation deck
  • The highest spa
  • The highest supermarket
  • Exclusive residential homes

Residences within Burj Azizi start at approximately £2 million for a one-bedroom apartment, with pricing reaching up to £218 million for the largest penthouse – set to become the most expensive home in Dubai.

A prime opportunity for international investors  Commenting on the launch, Tillmann Kloss, CEO of Fine & Country Dubai, said: “Burj Azizi is an incredible opportunity for international investors to own a home in one of the world’s most prestigious buildings, within a rapidly growing Dubai property market. Buying a property within the development, also provides the benefit of golden visa opportunities.”

He adds that Dubai offers exceptional yields and returns, and with the market surpassing its 2014 peak, now is the perfect time to invest. The city’s expanding population, increasing global presence, and strong regulatory framework all point to a promising future for real estate investors.

Dubai continues to experience unprecedented growth, with 10,000 Emirates IDs issued daily across the UAE, half of which go to new residents. As interest rates remain competitive, both the secondary and off-plan markets are thriving, making this an ideal time to invest in prime developments like Burj Azizi.

Join the exclusive launch events  Investors and prospective buyers are invited to attend the launch event at The Dorchester on 19 February, followed by exclusive viewings at Fine & Country’s Park Lane office on 20 and 21 February. The Park Lane showcase will feature the only Burj Azizi model available in the UK and Europe, providing a unique opportunity to explore this landmark development up close.

Kloss comments: “We are incredibly proud of this partnership and hosting the only model of the development in Europe, as it continues to showcase the brand’s strength and ambition of becoming a pivotal player in the middle market.”

Syed adds: “Our team is dedicated to providing exceptional service and ensuring every aspect of Burj Azizi exceeds expectations of the most discerning clients. We are excited to bring this extraordinary opportunity to the London market.”
