Oasis Mall: Dubai and Sharjah Locations, Shops, Cinema and Timings
“Oasis Mall” means two different malls in the UAE, and mixing them up is the most common mistake visitors make. Oasis Mall Dubai sits on Sheikh Zayed Road in Al Quoz and is the one most people mean when they search the name. Oasis Mall Sharjah is a separate, newer mall in Al Ghubaiba — and it is the one with the cinema.
This guide covers both: locations, shops, timings, and the cinema question answered.
Oasis Mall at a Glance
- Oasis Mall Dubai: Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Quoz 1, Dubai. Operator: Landmark Group. About 1 million sq. ft. of retail space across 4 levels, around 98 stores. No cinema.

- Also called: Oasis Centre / Oasis Centre Mall (the Dubai one — same property, old name).
- Not the same as: Silicon Central Mall in Dubai Silicon Oasis (sometimes searched as “Silicon Oasis Mall”).

Oasis Mall Dubai (Al Quoz)
Oasis Mall Dubai is a mid-sized, family-friendly mall on Sheikh Zayed Road between the 2nd and 3rd interchanges, in Al Quoz 1. Owned by the Landmark Group, it is built for practical shopping rather than the scale of Dubai’s mega malls.
Originally built as Oasis Centre in the mid-2000s, a fire destroyed it in 2005; the Landmark Group rebuilt a larger version that reopened in 2009. Today it spans about 1.44 million sq. ft. of built-up area, with around 1 million sq. ft. of retail across four levels and roughly 98 stores and kiosks.
Shops at Oasis Mall Dubai
Anchored by Landmark brands — Centrepoint, Max, Home Centre and Emax — plus a Carrefour supermarket, its ~98 stores and kiosks cover fashion, footwear, home goods, electronics, sports, beauty and gifts (Vincci, Lovisa, Parfois, Ajmal Perfumes), with cafés and restaurants for a break.
It is a value-for-money mall, popular with residents of Al Quoz, Al Barsha and nearby neighbourhoods.
Oasis Mall Sharjah
Sharjah’s Oasis Mall opened in early 2019 on Al Wahda Street in Al Ghubaiba — the emirate’s first Oasis Mall and its first flagship Centrepoint store. The 61,000 sq. m. mall hosts Landmark brands (Centrepoint, Max, Home Centre, Emax, Fun City, Shoexpress) plus Carrefour, Okaidi, Vincci and Parfois.
The draw is entertainment: Cinépolis opened its first UAE cinema here — 10 screens in Junior, Macro and Premium formats — still the only cinema under the Oasis Mall name. Fun City on the second level has a trampoline park for ages 2–12, and the Fun Block play area follows mall hours.

The Cinema Question
The honest answer is no: Oasis Mall Dubai (Al Quoz) does not have a cinema. Visitor reviews mention it as a gap versus other Dubai malls. The Cinépolis is in Sharjah, about a 30-minute drive away depending on traffic.
How to Get There
Oasis Mall Dubai: on Sheikh Zayed Road in Al Quoz 1, between the 2nd and 3rd interchanges. Reachable by car, taxi and bus; the mall sits right on the highway, so it is an easy stop between Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Oasis Mall Sharjah: on Al Wahda Street (Al Wahda Road) in Al Ghubaiba, Halwan. The mall is also a bus stop, and it is accessible from Dubai via Sheikh Zayed Road / Al Wahda Road. Its central location makes it easy to reach from Al Ghubaiba, Dasman and Bu Daniq.
Dining at Oasis Mall
In Sharjah, food clusters on the second level: KFC, McDonald’s, The Yellow Chilli (Indian, by Sanjeev Kapoor), Hong Kong Chinese Restaurant, Dunkin’ Donuts and a food court. In Dubai, cafés and restaurants are spread through the mall — practical rather than destination dining.
