The World Expo is opening in Dubai, and its organisers hope it will attract millions of overseas visitors to the emirate.
World Expos allow countries showcase their latest technology, and they've been drawing in crowds for the past 170 years dating back to Queen Victoria's reign.
But visitor numbers for this year's Expo may be lower than usual due to Covid as many countries are still putting restrictions on international travel.
On 27 November 2013, fireworks painted the sky from the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, as thousands across the UAE celebrated. A national holiday was even declared for all educational institutions across the country.

We were overjoyed that we won the bid and would soon be ‘Connecting Minds and Creating the Future’ with the first World Expo to be held in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia (MEASA) region.
