Damac Properties has officially opened a new 2,000sqm skatepark within its Damac Hill residential community in Dubai. The park is said to be designed for trick skating and offers residents a ‘one-of-a-kind leisure venue for skaters of all levels’.

Earlier this month, the skatepark hosted its premier Frame Skate Jam event by Select Shop Frame. Damac says the event celebrated the region’s growing skateboarding community and the evolution of skateparks.

According to a statement from the developer, the opening of the skatepark marks a busy time for the community, as additional facilities are scheduled to open within the development.

“During the same month, Golf Town, ready-built homes with world-class views of Damac Hills’ 7,300-yard golf course, was also introduced. Adjacent to the new skatepark, spacious apartments at Golf Town can be previewed in-person, or from the comfort of one’s home through Damac’s online virtual platform, enhanced by immersive VR technology,” a company spokesperson said.
