Expo 2020 Dubai has come to an end after 182 days of amazing experiences and the final figure achieved was 24,102,967 visits.
The event was one of the largest gatherings to take place since the start of the pandemic and successfully brought together 192 countries.
After being held a year later due to travel restrictions, global lock downs and challenges, Expo 2020 Dubai has been a huge success.
Her Excellency Reem bint Ibrahim Al Hashemy, Minister of State for International Cooperation and Director-General at Expo 2020 Dubai said, "From the beginning of this incredible Expo journey, our country’s leadership promised an Expo that would amaze the world. Despite the inconceivable challenges, including the pandemic, a new variant, and conflicts in different parts of the world, we have delivered on this promise with purpose and passion. We have presented world-class entertainment, we have shared our cultures and ideas, and we have sought solutions to some of our greatest global challenges. And this is just the beginning of the new world we have started making together."
Her Excellency Reem bint Ibrahim Al Hashemy further added, "We owe our sincere gratitude and respect to everyone who has come together to become part of this – from our 30,000-strong volunteer force to the dedicated Expo Tribe, our Participants and Partners, and of course the Expo 2020 Dubai Higher Committee. This has been a truly collective effort and a shining manifestation of our theme ‘Connecting Minds, Creating the Future’. Until we meet again, I thank each and every last one of you."
