The first World Expo in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia region, and the largest event ever held in the Arab world, for 182 days, Expo 2020 Dubai has been a hive of activity, from performances and parades, immersive experiences, insightful talks, food, art, music, sport and architecture. Starting 1 October 2021 and ending 31 March 2022, Expo 2020 Dubai has brought together more than 200 participants and many millions of people from around the world to come together with a shared purpose towards building a cleaner, safer, healthier future. The catalog is both a tribute to the participants and a special memento for visitors.

Essays written by a variety of contributors offer a detailed view of the ideas and meanings behind the themes and architecture at the Expo.
Each of the pavilions making up Expo 2020 Dubai is featured with a special emphasis on prominent architects such as Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill, AECOM and Hopkins Architects. An exploration of the Expo site, the title explores the iconic architecture and spaces, from the pavilions and programming to the public realm and beyond, with a focus on the three main themes-opportunity, mobility, sustainability.
