Dana Mall is an early shopping mall in the Seef District of Manama, the capital city of Bahrain.[1] The exterior of the mall is in Jordanian stone and the interior includes domes and stained glass ceilings.[2]

Dana Mall is one of the first established in Bahrain, opened in 2002.[2] It includes a food court,[3] Lulu Hypermarket[4] as the anchor store (the first LuLu store in Bahrain, opened in 2007,[5] expanded in 2020[6]), and restaurants. Dana Mall is the location of the LuLu Group head office in Bahrain.[citation needed]

The complex also includes the EPIX Cinemas WLL, with 10 screens.[7][8] The cinema has stadium seating with 1,100 seats[2] and is considered the best in Bahrain.[4]
