And with the Expo\u2019s focus on culture, comes commerce \u2013 as luxury brands celebrate the return of the Middle East shopper both at home and overseas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the commercial capital of both the UAE and the wider Gulf region, Dubai is more than just the host of the first world Expo to take place in the Middle East, it\u2019s an epicentre for the region\u2019s mix of culture and innovation.\u00a0\u00a0While the location naturally celebrates Dubai\u2019s global air-hub status for retail tourism, the Expo 2020 event will showcase 192 country pavilions, serving to remind the world that Dubai is a global city.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Running from 1 October, 2021 through end of March 2022, the Expo 2020 will see global luxury brands capitalise on a gradually&nbsp;recovering tourism industry with localised brand activity from the likes of Chanel and Giorgio Armani, which are both hosting fashion shows in Dubai over the next few months, reports the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessoffashion.com\/articles\/global-markets\/the-real-reason-luxury-brands-are-investing-in-the-dubai-expo\">Business of Fashion<\/a>&nbsp;(BoF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI saw what the expo did to Milano, in terms of energy, and I am sure it will be the same for Dubai. The market is extremely important for us, vital I\u2019d say, and I am holding this special event as a sign of hope and restart,\u201d says Giorgio Armani. He adds that the Expo 2020 will act as the cradle of a new concept of luxury\u2026.and the dynamism of local life, culture, invention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luxury groups such as Chalhaub and Al Tayer are optimistic for the Expo effect to rub off onto their global retail audiences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The BoF report also cites Patrick Chalhoub, CEO of the Chalhoub Group, which operates joint ventures with brands including Louis Vuitton and Dior, who comments: \u201cHopefully we\u2019ll get 10 million [visitors], not 25 million, and hopefully five million of those are from overseas, instead of the 15 million [we were expecting]. So, we could cry, or, we could say, \u2018Fantastic, we are getting five million people who are thirsty to travel.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Khalid Al Tayer, managing director of Al Tayer Insignia, a regional JV operator for brands including Gucci and Saint Laurent, the Expo offers an opportunity to be optimistic. \u201cFollowing the [Tokyo] Olympics, this is one of the largest events in the world [and]\u2026 the expo narrative of sustainability and unity is more relevant today than ever as a message.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But repatriation of global luxury spending into the domestic market in Dubai, is a key component of the Expo. As BoF reports, with 60% of pre-pandemic spend in the UAE connected to luxury retail (according Bain &amp; Co), and a 17% drop in the luxury goods market of the wider GCC region\u00a0(Gulf Cooperation Council countries comprising Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain and the UAE)\u00a0in 2020 to $7.4bn, the luxury goods brands operating in the GCC\u00a0are keen to reverse the regionalised downward spending trend. We can expect more localised luxury marketing activity such as Net-a-Porter\u2019s newly launched\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.arabnews.com\/node\/1821836\/lifestyle\">Gulf-centric digital platform<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"526\" src=\"https:\/\/www.echolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/nap-me-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2248\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.echolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/nap-me-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.echolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/nap-me-1-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.echolution.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/nap-me-1-768x404.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HNWIs boost premium flight bookings to Dubai<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile high vaccination rates and pent-up demand for travel are fuelling a HNW Middlel East travel surge.
