GITEX Global 2026 — Dubai

Dates
7 – 11 December 2026
Venue
Dubai World Trade Centre (7 Dec) and Expo City Dubai (8 – 11 Dec)
Location
Dubai, United Arab Emirates

GITEX Global is the largest technology event in the region and, for 2026, it moves across two venues — the summit day at Dubai World Trade Centre followed by four days at Expo City Dubai. It lands in the middle of Dubai's winter high season, so event demand stacks on top of already strong leisure demand.

If you own a property here

  • GITEX week collides with peak winter season in Dubai. Homes priced on a normal December calendar are usually the cheapest thing available that week.
  • The venue split across Expo City and World Trade Centre widens the catchment — Dubai South, Downtown and Business Bay all sit inside it.
  • Founders and exhibitors book longer stays than tourists and often extend. A calendar that blocks a five-night gap loses the whole booking.

If you are booking for a team

  • Residences for exhibiting teams who need a base for the full show, not four separate hotel bookings.
  • Locations chosen around the metro line and the two venues, so your team is not stuck in traffic each morning.
  • Concierge, housekeeping and a single point of contact through the week.

Where guests want to stay

These are the areas guests search by name for GITEX Global 2026. Each one prices differently, so minimum stays and rate floors are set per area rather than across the whole city.

The organiser lists 7 December 2026 at Dubai World Trade Centre for the summit day and 8 to 11 December 2026 at Expo City Dubai for the exhibition.

How far in advance do GITEX bookings come in?

Exhibitor and delegation accommodation is usually arranged months ahead of the show. Owners who set their event pricing and stay rules late are normally pricing into an already-booked market.
