The Dubai World Trade Centre, historically called Sheikh Rashid Tower, is a 38-story, 184 m skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, which was erected in 1979. It is a purpose-built complex for events and exhibitions. The building is featured on the 100 dirham bank note.

The Global Esports Federation is delighted to confirm Dubai as the host of our global flagship property – the Global Esports Games – in December 2025. Once again, the eyes of the world, the energy and passion of our #worldconnected community will light up Dubai, the UAE and the region.”

Put in Paul J. Foster, CEO, GEF, “We are excited to see the incredible progress since our signing of a Strategic Framework Agreement with Emirates Esports at Expo 2020 Dubai last November to unlock opportunities and develop esports in the region. The world will once again unite in Dubai with the City confirmed to host the Global Esports Games in 2025. The whole world knows that Dubai is a great host and offers an epic world-class setting. We can’t wait to see athletes from across the world standing on centerstage at the GEF Arena in December 2025 – as they compete for the glory of their home country flag, the fans at home and in the stands and the chance to show the world their many skills, talents, their personal journey, and the desire to compete.”
