Expo 2020 visitors to get special ‘souvenir’ passport

Souvenir allows them to relive memories of their experience­s

-

Dubai residents and internatio­nal visitors alike will get a special passport as a souvenir while exploring the 200-plus participat­ing pavilions at Expo 2020 Dubai.

The passport will encourage visitors to see as many pavilions as possible during the 182-day event, while allowing them to look back and relive the memories of their experience­s after their visit, a press release issued by Expo 2020 Dubai said yesterday.

Since its introducti­on at the 1967 World Expo in Montreal, the passport has become one of the most popular Expo souvenirs for visitors who want to keep track of all the different internatio­nal pavilions they

visit, collecting pavilion stamps as a memento.

The Expo 2020 version is inspired by the UAE’s heritage, linking the past with the present. Shaped like an official passport, the 50-page booklet contains designs and pictures of the three Thematic Pavilions, as well as Al Wasl Plaza — the crown jewel of the Expo site — plus other Dubai landmarks, such as the city’s iconic skyline and other elements relating to the UAE.
