Expo 2020 (Arabic: إكسبو 2020) was a World Expo hosted by Dubai in the United Arab Emirates from 1 October 2021 to 31 March 2022. There are 200 pavilions in Expo 2020 Dubai, out of which 191 are representatives of participating countries.[1] The following nations and organizations are participating in Expo 2020:
Baden-Württemberg was the only federal state to have its own pavilion at the Expo. More than 70 tons of spruce wood from Baden-Württemberg were shipped to Dubai for the construction of the pavilion.[197] Because sponsors withdrew their commitments and contracts were unclear, the federal state had to bear the costs itself and pay for a cost increase from three to more than 15 million Euros.[198]

The three entrance portals to the districts, which were completed in December 2019, are made of high-quality carbon fibers and resins that have been processed into the finest strands and would stretch around the world 5000 times if laid end to end. Each portal has two 21-meter-high gates.[207] The portals were manufactured by HA-CO Carbon GmbH (Wallerstein site in Germany).[208]
