Hilal Conferences and Exhibitions (HCE) has committed to extend the dates of its events as part of Bahrain’s MICE strategy to encourage more visitors from the GCC for events in the kingdom.  

 

The Gulf Property Show, Gulf Construction Expo and Interiors Expo will be held from March 15 to 18, 2023 at the Exhibition World Bahrain in Sakhir. 

 

The company has extended the show days, a first since its first show 20 years ago, to fall on two working days and the weekend.

 

“Over the years our shows have been very successful over three days. However, every year our exhibitors’ feedback said they wished the momentum of the shows to be carried on for fourth day. So, in 2023 by popular demand from our exhibitors, we will extend the show to a fourth day. The additional public days will enable visitors to take advantage of exclusive show day offers,” says Jubran Abdulrahman, Managing Director of HCE.

 

He adds: “Our co-located events provide a one-stop destination for Bahrain’s biggest B2B showcase for the real estate, construction, and interiors sectors. The three events attract investors from the GCC as well as Bahrain with companies and individuals looking for products and services from the construction and interiors sectors.”

 

Also, part of the events is the annual ‘On the Wall’ art exhibition which is held alongside the Interiors Expo. The ‘On the Wall’ gallery provides a platform for creative artists based in Bahrain and around the world. 

 

“On the Wall is committed to nurture upcoming artists to exhibit their works. This year, we will build on the previous award for popular student art with a host of other awards,” says Ahmed Suleiman, the Exhibition Director.

 

“The new format for our events is timely to coincide with a new venue for exhibitions in Bahrain. This new format, we expect, will contribute to the attraction of visitors to the events,” adds Suleiman.

 

The Gulf Property Show, Gulf Construction Expo and Interiors Expo will be held in Halls 5 and 6 of the Exhibition World Bahrain, from 11 am till 9 pm on March 15, 16 and 18 and from 3 pm till 9 pm on Friday, March 17. – TradeArabia News Service
