The Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Center (DICEC) is firmly established as the largest and most sought after events destination with more than 1,000,000 square feet of superior space for exhibitions, conferences and events.

DICEC is host to high profile & prestigious events including World Diabetes Congress, World Congress on Cardiology, GITEX, INDEX, and is regularly awarded distinctions and accolades from the PCO industry including the 2010 “Best Purpose-Built Events Venue” and “Best Trade Exhibition’ in the Middle East”.

The Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre (DICEC) is enviably positioned between new and old Dubai. On one side, you can find the city's glittering new skyline of hotels, freehold properties, business districts, shopping malls and entertainment resorts. On the other side is the more traditional part of Dubai with its souqs, landscaped parks and vibrant retail and residential districts. Dubai's historic creek, wildlife bird sanctuary, zoo, museum, heritage sites; and famed beaches, championship golf courses, and marinas are also in the vicinity.

There is an added advantage of the Dubai International Airport being a mere 15 minutes away and the new Jebel Ali International Airport, which will be the largest in the world when it opens, will be just 30 minutes away.
