It is a completed project, with units handed over since 2024, and both developer and resale units are available. As of the October 2026 update, prices at Cairo Festival City start from EGP 15 million, with a 10% down payment and installments over up to 5 years, and delivery in January 2024 for the announced phase.

The residential phase includes areas such as Ora for apartments and Orina for smaller and larger villas, plus the Podium administrative area. Names such as Oriana Villas and Festival Living may also appear, so names vary by phase and we ask you to confirm the name of the phase you are being offered.

The land was allocated to the company in the late 1990s, development opened in 2010, and Cairo Festival City Mall opened in November 2013 with the first IKEA store in Egypt.

A developer unit follows the developer&#8217;s payment schedule and terms, while a resale is negotiated with the owner and may offer immediate delivery at a different price. Second, ask for the unit plan and net area, because apartment sizes in published pages range from 130 to 418 sqm and do not describe any one unit. Third, ask about maintenance fees and the deposit (7%) and who bears service and club fees. Fourth, visit the project at peak hours to judge travel time to the Ring Road and to your workplace, because published distances are estimates.<\/p>\n<p>The project&#8217;s closeness to Cairo Festival City Mall, which opened in November 2013 and has the first IKEA store in Egypt, gives residents shopping and entertainment without leaving the city&#8217;s boundaries. That sets it apart from the smaller standalone compounds in the Fifth Settlement.<\/p>\n<p>Comparing phases remains the most important step. Units overlooking the lakes or main gardens are usually priced higher than interior units, so we ask you to set your priority between price, view and immediate delivery before we recommend the right unit.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Buy at Cairo Festival City Through West Capital<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>We explain the difference between developer units and resale units, and the real price per sqm of each unit.<\/li>\n<li>We compare Cairo Festival City with competing New Cairo projects to fit your budget.<\/li>\n<li>We review the payment plan, the maintenance deposit and the finishing condition with you before booking.<\/li>\n<li>We arrange the viewing, the negotiation and the follow-up of contracting procedures.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Explore more <a href=\"https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/en\/cites\/new-cairo\/\">New Cairo compounds and projects<\/a>, including <a href=\"https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/en\/projects\/mivida-new-cairo\/\">Mivida Fifth Settlement<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/en\/projects\/palm-hills-new-cairo-compound\/\">Palm Hills New Cairo<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/en\/projects\/mountain-view-hyde-park-new-cairo\/\">Mountain View Hyde Park Fifth Settlement<\/a>.
