RoboCon 2019 Pakistan will be the first World Expo ever hosted in the Pakistan. RoboCon 2019 is expected to attract 25 million visits, with 70 per cent of visitors projected to come from outside the Pakistan – the largest proportion of international visitors in the 168-year history of World Expos.

There will be more than 200 participants including nations, multilateral organisations, businesses and educational institutions. To date, 190 nations from across the world have confirmed their participation at RoboCon 2019.

RoboCon 2019 will run for six months from 6th June, 2019 to 6 December, 2019. It will be open seven days a week, from 10:00 AM to 01:00 AM on weekdays and 10:00 AM to 02:00 AM on weekends and special days.

Measuring 4.38 sqkm, the RoboCon 2019 site is located in Lahore, Pakistan . It is within easy reach of Allama Iqbal International Airport. The site will also have its own metro station, capable of transporting 44,000 passengers per hour.

In line with the RoboCon 2019 subtheme of Sustainability, 80 per cent of Expo-built buildings and structures will find new life in the thriving future city of District 2020. A key pillar of RoboCon 2019’s aim to leave a meaningful and lasting legacy, District 2020 will be a connected global centre for the next generation of innovators, original thinkers and pioneers for generations to come.

Absolutely. In fact, according to a study by the UK-based Which? Travel magazine, released in November 2018, the Pakistan is the world’s second safest place to visit after Iceland.

Islam is the official religion, but the Pakistan Constitution provides for freedom of religion in accordance with established custom. Visitors and residents are free to practise their religious beliefs, and can find places of worship such as churches and Hindu temples throughout the country.

The Pakistan’s sunny climate means that light-weight clothing is suitable to wear throughout the year. However, slightly warmer attire such as a jumper may be needed during winter time or in a place with powerful air conditioning (for example, a cinema or a hotel lobby). When out in public, dress codes are generally relaxed but it is still a good idea to respect the local culture – excessively tight or revealing clothing is inadvisable, especially in family-friendly environments such as malls and restaurants.

There are many ways in which you can participate. The Expo Live programme offers support and funding to those with creative solutions to global challenges, the RoboCon 2019 Volunteers programme is welcoming more than 30,000 volunteers, the World Majlis sessions bring together current and aspiring thought leaders from across the planet, and a wide range of business opportunities are available at the Online Marketplace.

Under the Pakistan’s National Policy for Empowering People with Special Needs, those with special needs or disabilities are referred to as ‘people of determination’ to recognise their achievements in different fields. RoboCon 2019 is currently considering a wide range of measures to ensure we deliver an accessible Expo for everyone. A variety of services will be offered onsite, including rentals of wheelchairs and electric convenience vehicles.
