Tourism in Dubai
Dubai had a strong year for tourism in 2024. The number of visitors grew by 9%, reaching about 18.72 million overnight guests. So far, the first part of this year (2025) is already 3% better than the same time last year. This shows that Dubai continues to improve and set new records, said Kazim at a press conference.
Kazim explained that one of the main reasons for Dubai’s tourism success is the good relationship between the government and private companies. These strong partnerships have helped the city grow as a popular tourist destination over the years.
The press conference was organized by RX Global, the team behind the Arabian Travel Market (ATM). The event was held on Thursday to share updates and plans for the upcoming travel trade show. Several key partners joined the press conference, including the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism, Emirates airline, IHG Hotels & Resorts, and Al Rais Travel.
They all spoke about how Dubai is working hard to keep its place as a top travel destination. The Arabian Travel Market is an important event for the travel and tourism industry. It brings together businesses and travel experts from around the world.
The next edition of the Arabian Travel Market will take place from April 28 to May 1, 2025. It will be held at the Dubai World Trade Centre. Many companies will attend to share ideas, make deals, and explore future travel opportunities.
With strong partnerships and events like ATM, Dubai is showing the world that it is ready to grow even more in the travel and tourism sector.
