DUBAI : With less than 10 days to go until it opens its doors to the world, Expo 2020 Dubai today launched its official song.
The song, “This Is Our Time”, highlights pride in the UAE’s culture, celebrates the future and brings together nations from around the world, while conveying the story of Expo’s overarching theme of “Connecting Minds, Creating the Future” through the universal language of music.
The song features Hussain Al Jassmi, one of the UAE’s biggest artists and Expo 2020 Ambassador, accompanied by Lebanese-American Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Mayssa Karaa, who is also Artistic Director of Expo’s all-female Firdaus Orchestra, as well as 21-year-old Emirati singer-songwriter Almas, named in Spotify’s Best Female Talent in the Middle East, UAE news agency WAM reports.
“World Expos bring people together, and we are pleased to welcome a collection of incredible talents to lend their voices to the official Expo 2020 Dubai song – combining the past, present and future, and providing an inspiration to all,” Chief Experience Officer at Expo 2020 Dubai Marjan Faraidooni said.
“In less than 10 days, we look forward to welcoming the world and creating once-in-a-lifetime memories for millions of visitors.”
