Apple Al Maryah Island opens its doors on Friday
Apple describes the new store as a "dramatic waterfront" and says it is "set above tiers of cascading water." Located in the heart of Abu Dhabi's financial district, the new Apple Store creates "a direct connection from the Galleria Al Maryah Island to the water's edge." It is the first time an Apple Store has used Absolute Black granite.

It also features a gold carbon fiber roof that was "locally sourced in the United Arab Emirates." Apple Al Maryah Island will open on Friday, February 25, 2022, at 5 p.m. local time. Due to Apple's ongoing health measures, visits to the store on opening day must be booked in advance. (Image: Apple)
