Expo 2020, one of the world’s most spoken about event is being held in Dubai until the end of March 2022. The Expo Dubai 2020 - although postponed due to Covid-19 pandemic - brings together 192 countries plus millions of visitors to celebrate innovation, collaboration and provide inspiration for the future. The main objective is to invite visitors to experience a diverse array of culture, food and technology from across the globe. With 60+ shows and entertainment, 200+ restaurants and 200 participants, it is an emotionally inspiring journey. 
 
Imagine yourself walking through an enormous pavilion where each of the 192 participating countries have their own building and space to showcase what makes their country amazing. You can sample food from all over the world, learn about cultures, people, and see what it would be like to visit the wonders of the world without leaving Dubai.  
 
The core theme of Expo 2020 is a combination of three micro themes that includes, sustainability, opportunity and mobility. 
 

1) Sustainability Pavilion

Climate changes and issues like global warming has long threatened our world, however, few are eager to solve and provide a solution for a much balanced world to live in for the many generations to come. The sustainability pavilion is, therefore, developed to create awareness campaign to combat global climate change. 
 

2) Opportunity Pavilion 

The opportunity Pavilion focuses on allowing the need for all races to grow and prosper. Opportunity should be open to all and with the focus on technology and business opportunities allowing people to connect minds and create a better future for all. 
 

3) Mobility Pavilion

The largest pavilion which tells the story of the past, present and future of human technological mobility. The mobility pavilion explores how new advances in transport and travel can accelerate the progress of mankind.
