Exhibiting at the show? From general participation information to details about the venue - find answers to your questions below.
What is Al Warsan holding area?
Al Warsan holding area is a place where contactors and exhibitors must go to obtain a pass that will allow them to proceed to the DWTC marshalling yard. Here, they will be given a queuing number which is a token that will allow them to proceed to DWTC. The reason behind this is to control the traffic by not allowing all trucks to proceed to the venue all at the same time that may cause major blockage on the road.
What is the marshalling yard?
Marshalling yard is the back entrance used by contractors and exhibitors to bring in their materials inside the DWTC. Only trucks with a token obtained from Al Warsan holding area are allowed to enter the marshalling yard. Also be advised that only vehicle trucks will be given access. Personal cars in the form of sedan, SUV etc. will not be permitted to enter the marshalling yard.
