Expo 2020 Dubai is nourishing more than just minds as part of the world’s greatest show.
And if you’re looking for a place to park up and talk the whole thing through (trust us when we say there is a whole lot to dissect) over a cold one, you’re in luck too.
From three-storey vegan dining halls to rooftop bars overlooking the titanic site, there really are some belting watering holes at which to cool off and dissect the world’s greatest show.
Here is where to find all the bars at Expo 2020 Dubai.
