Dubai Airshow Opens Registration for Most Ambitious Edition Yet
Registration is now open for the 19th edition of the Dubai Airshow, set to take place from November 17 to 21 at Dubai World Central, promising a future-focused platform for global aviation and defence leaders.
The 2025 edition aims to drive innovation, strengthen cross-sector collaboration, and spotlight the UAE's growing role in the global aerospace arena. Organisers say this year's show will be the most comprehensive to date, aligning with the nation's vision to remain at the forefront of aviation advancement.
The airshow comes as the UAE's aviation sector continues rapid growth, contributing $92 billion to GDP, according to the International Air Transport Association. The Middle East's commercial aircraft fleet is also projected to expand at 5.1% annually over the next decade.
New additions to the show include a first-of-its-kind runway networking event at SkyDive Dubai and night-time programming with drone displays, music, and extended access to static aircraft exhibitions. Sustainability, future technologies, and talent development will remain key pillars of the programme.
Flagship initiatives such as VISTA, the NextGen Leaders programme, and the new Academy will support start-ups and emerging professionals in aviation and space. Meanwhile, an AI-powered matchmaking tool will help streamline networking among delegates and decision-makers.
With over 15,000 visitors expected at the public Skyview platform and a full agenda of curated forums, the 2025 Dubai Airshow is set to reaffirm its status as one of the world's most influential aviation events.
