Central Pattana and IKEA’s Ikano Centres, announced a major expansion of “Megabangna Phase 2” Moving toward “MEGA City,” the largest mixed-use development in Eastern Bangkok, with a total project value of THB 70 billion by 2040.

Megabangna, including both Phase 1 and Phase 2, occupies 180 rai out of the total 325-rai site. The long-term vision of Central Pattana and Ikano Centres goes beyond developing a shopping center. The two partners aim to create “MEGA City” under a Mixed-use Master Plan a future-ready city spanning over 325 rai, with a total gross building area (GBA) of more than 1.3 million square meters and a total project value of THB 70 billion.

MEGA City will be a mixed-use destination that brings together shopping centers, office buildings, hotels, residences, healthcare, sports, and education. The project is expected to be completed by 2040.


Introducing the concept of “A Nature-led, Experience-led Destination” with Nordic-inspired architectural design.

The new phase of Megabangna is not only focused on expanding retail space, but also on creating a destination for everyone in the family under the concept of “A Nature-led, Experience-led Destination.”

The design draws inspiration from Nordic Design, which emphasizes nature, openness, comfort, and people-centric experiences. This aligns with Ikano Centres’ Meeting Place philosophy, which connects retail spaces, communities, and everyday living into one integrated destination.

“Bangna” as a high-potential location in Eastern Bangkok and the EEC

Looking at the expansion of Bangkok and its surrounding metropolitan areas, “Bangna” has emerged as one of the fastest-growing locations in Eastern Bangkok. This growth is driven by infrastructure development, the rise of residential projects particularly in the upper-end segment, population growth in the area, and the presence of educational institutions.
