Part of Expo City's rebranding after hosting the Expo 2020 Dubai, the festival will be a key highlight on the 2024 events calendar. As well as residential neighbourhoods, events and conferences are a major part of the legacy of the site, which is now undergoing a radical transformation. 

Ahmed Al Khaja, CEO of Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment said: “Hosting events like UNTOLD at Expo City Dubai is the perfect way to demonstrate the city’s capability to host mega events, further reinforcing its position as an international events hub in line with the ambition of our visionary leadership to make Dubai the best city in the world to visit, and live and work in."
