About the Dubai Exhibition Centre
The new, high-capacity DEC is a signature destination for global conferences, exhibitions, and galas. With flexible halls, over 24 meeting rooms, and direct Metro links, it welcomes both mega-events and private gatherings. Its split North/South wings offer functions for everything from tech expos to high-profile business launches, and are an easy Metro hop from Rove Expo 2020 hotel—the closest stay to all DEC happenings.
Being in District 2020, you’re uniquely placed within a new city hub for innovators, start-ups, and international visitors—with Jebel Ali and Dubai Marina to the west, and Downtown and City Walk just a short metro trip to the east.
Dining around the DEC
The DEC offers a variety of international and culturally-inspired catering options, all aligned with sustainability values and locally sourced ingredients. For a quick and satisfying meal, stop by The Daily in Rove Expo 2020, or pop over to La Mer or Jebel Ali for additional beachfront dining (just 15 min away on the Metro).
