Expo 2020 Dubai has unveiled two stunning attractions

Water that defies gravity and a garden in the sky

Expo 2020 Dubai is less than a month away – can you believe it?

Dubai is hosting the first ever Expo to be held in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia, and organisers estimate that 25million visitors will arrive in the emirate during the six-month run.

With incredible pavilions and experiences already announced, we didn’t think we could be more excited about what has been dubbed the world’s greatest show. Until now.

Two new attractions have been unveiled at the Expo 2020 Dubai site. The first, The Expo 2020 Water Feature, will see water defy gravity to flow upwards, while Garden in The Sky is exactly what it says on the tin, providing stunnings views of the entire destination.

The Water Feature will have an orchestral score from the award-winning composer of the Game of Thrones theme music, Ramin Djawadi. It has sheets of water cascading down vertical walls 13 metres high, and has made an immediate splash.

During the day, the water falls into a circle of fire (created with pure hydrogen) while after dark the H20 changes course, flowing backwards up the walls in a nature-defying act.

The Garden in the Sky, meanwhile, is 55 metres tall and is the perfect place to observe the park while being surrounded by nature.

You’ll find gorgeous flora and fauna including yellow flame trees, which you can access via rotating cabins.

Jubilee Park, where the lofty garden has been planted, also has food outlets, art installations, a stage, the World Souq and a playground.

We’re on the edge of our seats waiting for Friday October 1.

Dhs95 (one day), Dhs195 (30 days), Dhs495 (6 months). Dubai Exhibition Centre, expo2020dubai.com.
