Al Wasl Season is Expo City Dubai’s newest initiative; it combines all signature festivals and cultural experiences under one themed umbrella, set at the iconic Al Wasl Plaza, the beating heart of Expo City Dubai.

More than a line-up of events, it transforms Al Wasl Plaza into the destination where every tradition, every story, and every memory finds its place truly, One Destination, Every Celebration.

The season runs from 31 October 2025 to 2 May 2026, with a vibrant line-up of festivals and experiences spanning autumn, winter, spring, and summer.
