HOST DESTINATION

Dubai is one of the most exciting Travel & Tourism destinations in the world. Driven by the long term vision of HH Sheikh Mohamed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Prime Minister and Vice President of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, Travel & Tourism has grown at a remarkable pace, helping to diversify the economy of Dubai and providing a catalyst for thriving commerce and services based industries.

Successful and continued investment in infrastructure, pioneering Travel & Tourism products, services and the development of internationally renowned brands are just a few of the examples set by Dubai on the global market, making this city the ideal destination for the Global Travel & Tourism Summit in 2008.

VENUE

The Summit will take place in the Madinat Conference Hall – arguably the region's most comprehensive events facility. Standing within the Madinat Jumeirah Resort, the Conference Centre reflects the architectural styles of 'old Dubai' whilst forming an integral part of the region's only themed conference destination.  As detailed in the Travel & Accommodation section of this website, the Madinat Jumeirah will be the choice address for Summit delegates. Hotels forming the Madinat Jumeirah include the Mina Salam Hotel, Al Qasr Hotel and the Dar Al Masyaf Courtyard Summer Houses. The Burj Al Arab and Jumeirah Beach Hotels are also close by.
