Madar, located in the heart of the Aljada project in the Muwaileh area of Sharjah, includes many family facilities within attractive green surroundings that extends over an area of 600,000 square feet. Madar, meaning 'orbit', expresses the freedom of movement of people around the site. The word also reflects the spirit of the iconic design pioneered by Zaha Hadid International Architects, where the oval-shaped buildings are aligned around a central axis in the middle.

The complex's facilities include;

Zad, the new destination for lovers of delicious flavors in the Emirates, with 18 brands offering a variety of food and drinks in a wonderful modern environment punctuated with vibrant shades and colours. Zad corner includes many delicious and rich flavors, in addition to an array of fun facilities and entertainment activities for everyone.

The arena design elements are inspired by the most famous skateboarding arenas around the world, including Ariake Urban Park in Tokyo, Bondi Beach and Salt Lake City. The main field also includes small field lanes, street sections, narrow lanes, and spaces for beginner and intermediate skaters alike.
