It was a moment of never-ending joy and laden with emotion for the visitors who turned out in large numbers to grace the official opening of Expo City Dubai on Saturday. They could see their favourite attractions once again, a year since the start of Expo 2020 Dubai.
Around 50 Expo City Dubai staff and their families opened the Sustainability Entry Portal at 9am, much to the delight of the residents and marking the launch of a new era. This evening, around 6.15pm, Al Wasl will revive its spectacular appeal, with a spellbinding light show to celebrate the creative and optimistic spirit of this trailblazing, innovative city of the future.
