Expo

Discover the history of the World Expo, the journey to Expo 2020 Dubai, as well as the new doors that open when our Expo draws to a close.

The Future of Expo

When Expo 2020 Dubai draws to a close, it paves the way for a city of the future: District 2020. Expo also leaves a lasting legacy of incredible initiatives, ensuring its message of hope for the future persists long after the doors close.

2021 and beyond

District 2020

District 2020 will be a global innovation ecosystem and mixed-use community. A sustainable, human-centric smart-city, it will re-purpose at least 80% of Expo 2020’s built infrastructure, including LEED Gold and Platinum-certified buildings.

A Lasting Legacy

The connections we will make, our hopes and aspirations, and the opportunities to experience innovation, ideas, cultures and traditions of over 190 participating countries will all translate into building a better tomorrow.
