Pavilions Premiere bookings can be made from 16th January at https://expo2020dubai.com/en/pavilions-premiere with tickets costing AED25. Visitors are urged to book early, as the pavilion will operate five days per week with limited operating hours and capacity restrictions due to enhanced health and safety measures.

"We are delighted to start 2021 on such a positive note, as we welcome the UAE community to be the first to experience Terra – The Sustainability Pavilion, at a moment in our history that is unparalleled, in terms of its impact on humanity," noted Reem bint Ibrahim Al Hashemy, Minister of State for International Cooperation, and Director-General of Expo 2020 Dubai.

"This period of rapid, unprecedented change has brought with it a pressing need to rethink the way we exist and is further accelerated by a global health crisis that has touched each and every individual on Earth. While 2020 may be remembered as a year that changed us forever, it has also given us a tremendous opportunity to come together as a global society and find answers to our most pressing challenges," she said.

To manage capacity and provide an optimal experience, all visitors are required to make online reservation in advance. Walk-in tickets will not be available. The pavilion will be open from 15:00-21:00 on Tuesdays to Thursdays, and 16:00-22:00 on Fridays and Saturdays, starting on 22 January.

Expo 2020 Dubai will be the first World Expo to be held in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia (MEASA) region – welcomes visitors from throughout the world from 1st October 2021 to 31st March 2022, after it was postponed from last year due to the global impact of the coronavirus health crisis. This global conclave will bring together more than 200 countries to explore new ideas, form new connections and collectively address some of the greatest global challenges, while remaining true to the main theme of Expo Dubai 2020: 'Connecting Minds, Creating the Future', all aimed at fostering global cooperation to address and solve global challenges by promoting the development of innovative technologies. Everything will revolve around the three main pillars of the world fair: Sustainability, Opportunity and Mobility.
