Shopping malls

Background music and radio for shopping malls in Dubai & UAE

Mall background music is a zoned audio programme that gives atriums, walkways and food courts their own soundtrack, plus announcements and mall radio — designed for shopping destinations across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the UAE.

Music for shopping malls — licensed background music by Araya Sound

Music for shopping malls, licensed and brand-matched

Whether you call it music for shopping malls or background music for shopping malls in Dubai & UAE, it is the same job: a fully licensed, brand-matched soundtrack that fits the room, runs on schedule and never needs anyone on site to press play. Araya curates the playlists, handles the licensing and installs the audio so every space across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the UAE sounds the way your brand should.

What we do for shopping malls

  • Zone by zone

    Calm in the walkways, lively in the food court, premium in the luxury wing — all from one control panel.

  • Mall radio and announcements

    Station-style programming with tenant promos, event trailers and paging that override music cleanly.

  • Seasonal switches

    Ramadan, Eid, National Day and holiday programmes scheduled in advance across the whole property.
