Dubai Expo 2020 Venue
The site for World Expo 2020 Dubai will be Dubai Trade Center – Jebel Ali: a 438 hectare site on the southwestern edge of Dubai.
Equidistant from the centres of Abu Dhabi and Dubai, the site is located next to the new Al Maktoum International Airport and also located in close proximity to Jebel Ali Port, the third busiest port in the world.
Last year alone, more than 51 million passengers travelled through Dubai International Airport, where 150 airlines serve 220 destinations on six continents. Led by the success of Emirates Airline, the world’s fastest-growing airline, Dubai Airport is now poised to be the world’s busiest international airport by 2015.
The logistical advantages of the site both for exhibitors – bringing in materials and constructing pavilions – and visitors, are clear.
Securing an architectural legacy from Expo 2020, after the event the Dubai Trade Center – Jebel Ali will be a lasting and working monument to the power of connectivity: a place for people to come together and make a difference.
