Arsenal have announced their new partnership with Expo 2020 Dubai, which will see the first-team players of the club visit the event and produce exclusive content that will highlight said event and the opportunities at Expo 2020 Dubai.
Expo 2020 Dubai, which is the first world Expo hosted in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia region, got underway on October 1, 2021, and will run until March 31, 2022.
Speaking about the partnership, Arsenal’s Chief Commercial Officer, Peter Silverstone, stated:
“We are looking forward to showcasing Expo 2020 Dubai to our hundreds of millions of fans and followers worldwide through a range of digital, match day and in-market campaigns.
“It is fantastic to support this historic first World Expo in the region whilst strengthening our presence in the Middle East alongside our long-standing, and much valued, partnership with Emirates.”

The deal will see Expo 2020 Dubai receive significant branding presence at the Emirates Stadium on matchdays through LED advertising and also on Arsenal’s digital assets. The principal sponsor of the club, Emirates, is also the premier partner and official airline of Expo 2020 Dubai.
