Weather during the conference
During October, the temperatures in Dubai typically range from the low to mid 30’s and the sea is also at its warmest. There is little to no rain in the UAE, and average temperatures in Dubai range from 25°C to 36°C. Wearing modest and lightweight clothing is a good choice; however, we recommend packing a light coat or jumper in case of an unexpected drop in temperatures.
