Car Rental & Chauffeur for GITEX 2026
GITEX GLOBAL runs 7–11 December 2026 at its NEW home — the Dubai Exhibition Centre, Expo City. Our office is fifteen minutes away at Ibn Battuta Gate: self-drive delivered to your hotel, or a chauffeur from AED 90/hour.
GITEX GLOBAL 2026 runs 7–11 December — and for the first time it is NOT at the World Trade Centre. The show moves to the Dubai Exhibition Centre at Expo City Dubai, out by Jebel Ali on the E311/E77 corridor.
That venue change rewrites the transport plan. Expo City is 35–45 minutes from the Downtown and DIFC hotels where most delegates stay, and ride-hailing from a 40,000-person show at closing time is exactly as painful as it sounds. A rented car or a booked chauffeur turns the week back into a schedule you control.
Our office is at Ibn Battuta Gate — around fifteen minutes from Expo City — so delivery to hotels near the new venue (JBR, Marina, Ibn Battuta, Jebel Ali) is our home turf.
