Australia at Expo 2020 Dubai

A journey of discovery, the Australian Pavilion will highlight Australia’s diversity, ingenuity and contribution through 60,000 years of innovation.

G’day, Womenjika, 你好, مرحباً, xin chào, γεια σας, Kamusta, नमस्ते, Hola and ਸਤ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਅਕਾਲ.

These are just a few of the ways that we say ‘hello’ and ‘welcome’ in Australia.

Experience Australian hospitality: say G’day!
The Australian Pavilion design by Brisbane-based architects bureau^proberts takes inspiration from the cumulus cloud, a feature of the diverse Australian landscape. bureau^proberts describes the cloud’s structural elements as signifying the way in which Australia is home to multiple cultures that unify and enhance our nation. The Australian Pavilion provides a place of gathering and welcome.

Commitment to sustainability
Sustainability features in the Australian Pavilion through the use of Australian-made composite laminated timbers and Australian smart water-saving technologies which enables real-time tracking of water usage throughout the building.
