In the heart of Nigeria’s capital, a bold new lifestyle destination is poised to redefine how residents live, work, shop, and unwind.
The Uptown mall, Nigeria’s first 24-hour all-in-one lifestyle centre, is set to open soon, blending retail, leisure, wellness, and entertainment into a dynamic urban experience.
Strategically located just 30 minutes from Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport and within three minutes of Jabi, Utako, Wuse, Maitama, Asokoro, and the Central Business District, The Uptown is far more than a shopping centre; it’s a self-contained ecosystem for modern city living.
All-in-One. All Day. All Night.
Spread across five levels of thoughtfully designed space, the mall offers unmatched convenience and variety, open round-the-clock. It boasts:
Nigeria’s largest rooftop event space
The highest concentration of food and beverage outlets in a single location
Distinct zones for retail, business, wellness, and recreation
Whether you’re in Abuja for a few hours, days, or an extended stay, Uptown caters to your every need — from fine dining to everyday essentials, all in one place.
A First-of-Its-Kind Lifestyle Integration
What truly sets The Uptown apart is its co-location with a state-of-the-art serviced apartment complex, allowing for a seamless lifestyle flow between home and leisure. Residents and guests can wake up, work out, hold meetings, dine, shop, attend events, and relax — without ever leaving the premises.
This integrated concept is a first in Nigeria and a game-changer for lifestyle real estate across West Africa. It represents a new pinnacle of convenience, luxury, and urban efficiency.
Dining & Entertainment Redefined
The Uptown offers a world-class culinary experience with:
Seven restaurants spanning global cuisines

At the top of it all is the record-setting rooftop event space, featuring:
An 800-seat ballroom
A 1,500-guest banquet hall
Three flexible meeting rooms for up to 200 guests each
It’s the perfect venue for weddings, conferences, and high-profile events all with stunning views of Abuja.

The complex also features a spa, salon, barbershop, laundry, and a mosque discreetly located in the basement parking area, ensuring every detail, from utility to spirituality, is thoughtfully addressed.
