Why

ADNEC

At ADNEC, events are the centre of our business. We have been the home of successful events since our establishment in 2005. Here’s a few reasons why we are the leading event destination in the Middle East.
Proudly located in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, named the safest city in the world from 2017 to 2022, ADNEC is one of the most accessible and sought-after venues in the world. ADNEC is just 15 minutes away from the rapidly expanding Abu Dhabi International Airport which serves over 50 airlines and 100 destinations in 46 countries around the globe. It is only 20 minutes from downtown Abu Dhabi and 90 minutes from Dubai International Airport. Abu Dhabi is not only a gateway to the Middle East but to the entire MENA region.
