With its enormous population and diversity of ancient traditions, India is a place of incredible richness and complexity. The India Pavilion offers a new take on the country that goes beyond its famed culture and stunning landscapes to show a rising economic power that is very much open for business. The pavilion focuses on “New India”, an emerging global hub for innovation, inspiration and investment. Its wide variety of exhibits feature not just the food, tea and Bollywood entertainment that so many know and love, but also the country’s modern-day advancements in technology, aerospace, manufacturing and more.

Al Forsan Park is inspired by the UAE's rich tradition of breeding, riding and caring for its horses. In Arabic, forsan are horsemen.

As you walk along the park’s interlaced network of paths, you’ll discover a plethora of opportunities for fun, culture and recreation. From a taste of the UAE’s first opera, to art installations, a souq and Latifa’s Adventures, there is something for the whole family. Enjoy a cultural performance at the Dubai Millennium Amphitheatre – named after one of the most successful race horses owned by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and ruler of Dubai. 


Finding its design inspiration in the woven patterns of Arabian carpets, the broad 2.2-hectare Al Forsan Park is home to a rich mosaic of attractions, separated by criss-crossing pathways.
