Last year, the World Tobacco Middle East exhibition expanded into an additional hall, and added new features such as the 700sqm Lex Tobacco smoking lounge.

This year’s edition promises to build on that growth, and be even bigger and better than ever. More than 250 global exhibitors are anticipated to attend and showcase their latest innovations, machinery and equipment. As always, delegates will be able to access exclusive show-only offers and deals, as well as forge new supply-chain partnerships.

Running alongside the exhibition, the conference component will cover the latest challenges and opportunities that are shaping the sector, including e-cigarettes and vaping, online sales, government regulations and more.
