SUSTAINABILITY & HERITAGE… A REBORN ASPIRATION
Under the patronage of HIS HIGHNESS SHEIKH HAMDAN BIN ZAYED AL NAHYAN, Ruler›s Representative
in the Al Dhafra Region and chairman of the Emirates Falconers’ Club, the higher organizing committee of
The International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition (Abu Dhabi 2021) is pleased to welcome all companies,
exhibitors, sponsors, businessmen and visitors from different parts of the world, at Abu Dhabi National Exhibition
Center (ADNEC) from September 2021.
The eighteenth edition of ADIHEX organized by the Emirates Falconers’ Club in Abu Dhabi, the prestigious economic
centre on the international map, comes within the club’s active contribution in supporting the strategy of the “50th year of
preparation” for the UAE towards a brighter future filled with success and creativity in every field.
Hence, the Abu Dhabi International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition, which is considered the largest of its kind in the Middle
East and Africa, continues to confidently develop its plans and projects in line with its leading environmental and heritage role
in promoting sustainable hunting, and at the same time constitutes a valuable annual opportunity for regional and international
companies with the aim of discovering the strong business opportunities available to them.
ADIHEX focuses its plans on the continuous successes of the previous editions, and with the number of exhibitors doubling
more than 16 times since the first edition, the last edition hosted more than 650 prestigious brands from 40 countries,
through the 11 sectors of the exhibition, which it includes arts and crafts, equestrian, falconry, hunting tourism & safari, hunting
and camping equipment, hunting guns, promotion and preservation of cultural heritage, outdoor leisure vehicle and equipment,
veterinary products and services, fishing equipment and marine sports, and specialized media.
ADIHEX is very popular, as it reverberates around the world and expected by the public - individuals and families - year after
year thanks to its educational activities, innovative competitions and live shows that attract everyone. More than 1,500,000
people have visited it over its past editions, including more than 110,000 visitors from 120 nationalities in 17th edition
(Abu Dhabi 2019). Every year, the event witnesses the participation of more than 700 media professionals in covering its
activities in more than 12 languages.
As we wish everyone a successful participation and enjoyable presence in Abu Dhabi, we hope that all of us, organizers, exhibitors,
sponsors and audiences will contribute to enhance environmental sustainability, hunting, heritage sports and related business,
and to develop a comprehensive strategy towards further development of the event based on previous successes in an ambitious
reborn aspiration.
Your presence in the new edition (Abu Dhabi 2021), the largest in the history of the exhibition, which witnesses unprecedented
logistical preparation and huge marketing campaign, represents an additional value that contributes to ensuring the success of
the event and its continuous development.
