Equipped with ViaDirect wayfinding software in 2016, the Villaggio mall in Doha has this year equipped its software with the new V4 version!
The Villaggio Mall has been equipped with our digital wayfinding and information solution for 6 years thanks to our partner Elan Decaux.
Villaggio Mall is a large shopping mall located in Doha, the capital of Qatar. Located on Al Waab Street between Hyatt Plaza and Sports City, it is accessible by metro, car or taxi.
The mall has more than 200 affordable and luxury shops including German, British, American and French brands with a Carrefour, but especially Italian, from which the mall was mainly inspired for its atypical decor.

The interior of the shopping center is based on the theme of Italianism. It gives the impression of being outdoors with a blue sky on the ceiling and has a typical Venetian setting with a 150 metre long inner canal with gondolas that can be walked on. Information can be found on wayfinding kiosks directly.
In addition to being an incredible shopping destination, the mall offers its visitors a unique entertainment environment by hosting the Gondolania Park, an indoor theme park, including the Gondolania Olympic Ice Rink, home of ice hockey and the regional Desert Cup tournament. Villaggio Mall also has a bowling center and a roller coaster. All of which will satisfy its customers.
The Qatar shopping mall has installed digital wayfinding kiosks to orientate all its visitors. It has 5 JCDecaux wayfinding kiosks, each with ViaDirect wayfinding software. We were delighted to work with the mall again to provide them with our latest version of the software to ensure maximum efficiency.
The ViaDirect V4 wayfinding software for the mall includes :
- Route search via the 3D map
- Access to entertainment information
- Search for shops from A to Z
- Search for stores by category
- User interface in English and Arabic
- Adaptability of the menu for people with reduced mobility (PRM)
- Easy access to key services in the center
