Football legend Lionel Messi hits the target as he kicks off our three-month countdown until Expo 2020 Dubai, the biggest event the Arab world has ever seen.

With only three months to go until Expo 2020 Dubai opens its doors to the world, details of three ticket tiers have been announced, with excitement going through the roof as football superstar Lionel Messi kicked off the countdown in a new video filmed at Al Wasl Plaza.

With one-day tickets priced at AED 95 (USD 26); multi-day tickets offering unrestricted entry for 30 consecutive days for AED 195 (USD 53); and season passes, with unlimited entry for the entire six months of Expo 2020, costing AED 495 (USD 135), magical moments and unique memories are guaranteed for everyone.

Each of Expo’s 182 days will bring a new surprise, a new innovation and a new breath-taking sight, inspiring guests to visit as many times as possible.

Messi, meanwhile, hits the target in a new video to coincide with three months to go until Expo 2020, in which he spectacularly kicks a football into Al Wasl Plaza through the opening at the centre of its iconic dome.
