Abu Dhabi is preparing to launch the 18th edition of the International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition (ADIHEX 2021), where the efforts of the Higher Organising Committee are intensifying to organise the largest event of its kind in the Middle East and Africa.

ADIHEX will take place its 18th edition on 27 September – 03 October 2021 at Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

It attracted more than one and a half million visitors throughout its past editions, representing a continuous success story in preserving the environment, sustainable hunting, presenting heritage and enhancing the awareness of youth and younger generations about traditions and the authentic Emirati culture.

It is the largest event of its kind in the Middle East and Africa, becoming a prestigious global platform allowing participants to identify distributers and partners, expand their businesses, launch and promote latest products in addition to its key role in promoting and preserving cultural heritage.

Held under the patronage of Sheikh Hamdan Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Ruler's Representative in Al Dhafra Region and Chairman of the Emirates Falconers’ Club, the event is organised by the Emirates Falconer’s Club under the theme "Sustainability and Heritage... A Reborn Aspiration.”

This year, ADIHEX is witnessing a remarkable development and an increase in Emirati, Arab and international participation, despite the health and economic conditions that the world has witnessed since last year.
