Micronesia Mall, located in Dededo at the intersection of Guam Highways 1 and 16, is the largest shopping center in the Western Pacific on the tropical island of Guam.

A mix between an outlet mall and an indoor, American-style shopping mall with 125 merchants, Micronesia Mall's 149,377-square-foot (13,877.6 m2) anchor is Macy's, which is the only Macy's store west of Hawaii. The mall is also home to designer boutiques such as Benetton, Guess and Levi's. In addition to a 24 restaurant food court and the Micronesia Mall 12 Screen Theatres featuring all stadium 3D/Digital technology, there is also a 24-hour supermarket inside of the mall, another deviation from the traditional American mall structure. Funtastic Park, an amusement park is located inside of the mall featuring seven rides including a roller coaster, carousel, bumper cars, Pirate Ship, Crazy Cans, Jungle Safari, Lady Bug and an arcade.

Other notable stores include: Guam's only Foot Locker store, Nautica, Swarovski, Folli Follie, Gamestop, Harnn & Thann, Flip Flop Shops, Vitamin World and Bench.

Notable fast-food, restaurant and snack chains include: Burger King, Sushi Rock, Cold Stone Creamery, Denny's, Great American Cookie Company, KFC, Pretzelmaker, Sbarro, Subway, Taco Bell, Taco Del Mar, Tutti Frutti[disambiguation needed ], Coffee Beanery and Cinnabon.

Micronesia Mall's proximity to Andersen Air Force Base in Yigo , the Navel Communications Station (NCS) and the soon to be constructed Marine Corps Base on Route 3 is a convenience for active duty personnel and their dependents in contrast to its competitors Guam Premier Outlets in Tamuning and Agana Shopping Center in Hagåtña which are closer to the Naval Base in Piti and Santa Rita.

History

The Micronesia Mall opened on August 8, 1988 - a date chosen by its owners for luck: The number "8" is considered a lucky number by Chinese and other Asian cultures, and thus 8/8/88 was considered a desirable date for a grand opening.
