Dubai has consolidated its position as a leading destination for international business events.

In the first half of 2022, the emirate secured the rights to host 99 major conferences, congresses, incentive travel programmes and other meetings in the coming years.

This underscore Dubai’s compelling business proposition, including its strong track record in hosting large-scale international events and as a platform for networking and knowledge-sharing.

Dubai Business Events (DBE), Dubai’s official convention bureau, collaborated with stakeholders across the emirate and the wider UAE to register the successful bid wins.

These events are set to attract more than 77,000 delegates and yield over 330,000 hotel room nights over the coming years.

They are also set to boost Dubai’s events, hospitality and related tourism sectors in addition to advancing the wider economy by bringing expertise and knowledge from around the world.
