Expo 2020 Dubai entry gates revealed

Tuesday, 11 February 2020 10:44

The three Expo 2020 Dubai entry gates that will open in October have been unveiled.

Designed by British architect Asif Khan, the gates are a futuristic adaptation to regulate light and airflow.

The gates have been woven from ultra-lightweight carbon-fibre composite and stand at 21 metres high - taller than a six-storey building.

The video captured on a drone also showcases the Al Wasl Plaza, that will be home to live shows and performances during the six-month-long event.

The stage is set, with only 250 days to go until we inspire and empower millions at The World’s Greatest Show. #Expo2020 #Dubai pic.twitter.com/AeCeLsgurt
