Sharjah, the UAE’s third-largest city, holds the prestigious title of being UNESCO’s cultural capital of the Arab world. This vibrant city is renowned for its rich and diverse culture, thriving art scene, and a multitude of cultural gatherings and exhibitions held year-round.
At the forefront of hosting these events and exhibitions is Expo Centre Sharjah, a prominent venue that provides cutting-edge facilities and services to cater to exhibitors, organizers, visitors, and marketers from across the globe.
Expo Convention Centre in Sharjah
Founded in 1977 by the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce & Industry, the Expo Centre Sharjah proudly stands as the region’s oldest and most extensive exhibition center.
Over its more than 40-year history, the Expo Centre has been the host to a wide range of trade fairs, exhibitions, and conventions, establishing itself as a pivotal player in the business landscape.
It now proudly accommodates some of the Gulf’s most well-attended trade shows, spanning diverse sectors such as education, health, tourism, industry, technology, fashion, and art.
Nestled in the heart of Sharjah, the Expo Centre serves as an iconic landmark. It encompasses an impressive area of 126,000 square meters, including over 28,000 square meters of meticulously designed, column-free exhibition space, all with a scenic view of a picturesque lagoon.
With six spacious indoor halls complemented by smaller yet equally versatile supporting venues, the facility proves to be an ideal setting for various gatherings, including meetings, public seminars, celebrations, or product launches.
At the core of the complex, a central boulevard elegantly facilitates visitor access to the primary halls, as well as to the meeting and seminar rooms.
This boulevard is thoughtfully accompanied by amenities, including a press lounge, service-oriented offices, a variety of restaurants, charming cafés, and convenient ATMs.
