The UAE Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka will mark UAE Day on Friday, 19 September, in the presence of Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi. 

The celebration forms part of the official programme of events scheduled throughout the international exposition.

The UAE Pavilion, inspired by the palm tree, combines innovative and sustainable design with cultural symbolism deeply embedded in Emirati heritage. 

Visitors are invited to embark on an immersive, multisensory journey, exploring the UAE’s rich traditions as well as its cutting-edge contributions in space exploration, healthcare, and sustainable technology.

The UAE’s participation under the Expo’s overarching theme “From Earth to Ether” underscores the nation’s role in global innovation and sustainability, while also reflecting the strength of UAE-Japan relations across diverse fields.

Running until 13 October 2025, Expo 2025 Osaka provides a platform for nations to share visions of the future.
