The Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre is the largest exhibition venue in the Middle East. ADNEC was established in August 2005 under a decree issued by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE and Ruler of Abu Dhabi. The objective was to develop a venue that would replace the old Abu Dhabi International Exhibition Center and attract more meetings, incentives, conferences and events into the emirate. It embraced the broader goal of enhancing Abu Dhabi’s image as a business, leisure and lifestyle destination.
With 73,000sqm of live event space divided into 12 halls, an 18,000 sqm visitor concourse and a 3,000 sqm atrium ADNEC features state-of-the-art facilities and technical equipment for RedFilo events …
… SUMMER IN ABU DHABI …
… IDEX opening ceremony …
… and special shows such as Big Apple Circus and Fantasy on Ice.
In 2009, ADNEC won Best International Venue (Adnec) International CONFEX Awards, Best Venue (Adnec) Middle East Event Awards, Best Trade Exhibition (IDEX 2009) Middle East Event Awards, Best Theme (Summer in Abu Dhabi) Middle East Event Awards and Middle East’s Leading Exhibition Centre (Adnec) World Travel Awards.
RedFilo is proud to have contributed to the success of IDEX 2009 and Summer in Abu Dhabi 2009.
In 2010, at the prestigious AEO (Association of Exhibition Organisers) Excellence Awards ADNEC was awarded the title of “International Venue of the Year” and also won the “Green Award” at the Middle East Event Awards, for the venue’s contribution to Abu Dhabi’s 2030 vision.
Way to go, ADNEC!
