UAE pavillion reaches 3 million visitors milestone at Expo 2025 Osaka

WAM

The UAE pavilion has welcome three million visitors at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, marking another key milestone in its journey as one of the most visited and admired national pavilions at the Expo.

With the theme 'Earth to Ether," the pavilion has become a space of storytelling, connection and discovery since opening in mid-April 2025, offering an immersive experience that bridges the UAE’s rich heritage with its forward-looking vision for global progress.

The Pavilion’s 90 columns, formed from agricultural palm waste and inspired by the date palm, reflect a design philosophy rooted in shared purpose, creative exchange, and the pursuit of progress for all life that represent the UAE's heritage.

The team behind the pavilion marked the milestone by taking the opportunity to connect with visitors and reflect on the journey so far. 

Shihab Alfaheem, ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of the UAE to Japan and Commissioner General of the UAE pavilion, highlighted how "every visitor who walks through the pavilion brings their own voice to our collective journey. Together, we are shaping a narrative that crosses borders, embraces diversity and accelerates progress. With two months remaining, we want more guests to experience our pavilion.”

The pavilion has seen many visitors return for a second or even third experience, a testament to the lasting impression it leaves and the connection it fosters across cultures. 

With Expo 2025 running until October 13, the UAE pavilion continues to welcome the world to explore the UAE’s enduring values and its vision for a shared and flourishing future.
