This time Expo 2020 is organized at Al Wasl Plaza, the world’s largest 360-degree projection surface and the Expo’s centerpiece, which will be featured at the Dubai Expo. It will be the first time in history that 192 countries altogether will participate in Dubai Expo 2020.

What to Expect at Expo 2020 Dubai?
The main theme of the Dubai Expo 2020 is “Connecting Minds, Creating the Future.” The concept is perfect for today’s climate, especially at a time when technology is bringing the world closer together and allowing us to connect while we are socially isolated.
Dubai Expo is undoubtedly a country’s most important showcase event outside of its own borders. It is one of the few large-scale events that attract global attention. The World Expo, unlike the Olympic Games or the FIFA World Cup, is the biggest “media event,”.
What is the objective of Expo 2020 in Dubai?
Expo 2021 Dubai has chosen global sustainability as one of its sub-themes in an effort to increase awareness and serve as an engaging platform to present ideas, pique interest, and stimulate collaboration.
