The Doha Expo 2023, which commenced on October 2 will etch its name in history as the first A1 International Horticultural Exhibition to take place in Qatar.

This landmark event will take place from October 2, 2023, to March 28, 2024, spanning six months.

Doha Expo 2023 is spearheaded by the Ministry of Municipality and is supported by Qatar’s Prime Minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani.

It serves the Qatar National Vision 2030 which places paramount importance on environmental management and sustainable development as its guiding principles.

The theme of Doha Expo 2023 is “Green desert, better environment.” This thematic choice reflects the expo’s overarching mission—to inspire the global community to embrace innovative solutions for combatting desertification.
