As Paris welcomes athletes and fans for one of the world’s largest sporting events, and many of them expected to travel through Dubai International (DXB), the airport has launched its first-ever DXB Games.

Turning the world’s busiest international travel hub into a celebration of sportsmanship and cultural diversity, DXB Terminal 3's Family Zone transforms into a vibrant sporting arena, from July 26 to August 11.

Travellers can dive into the action with activities like the bike sprint to success, football keep-ups challenge, and a basketball shootout.

Participants can compete with family or fellow travellers and stand a chance to earn bronze, silver and gold medals that come with exciting cash vouchers.

"This summer, one of the world’s largest sporting events provides a platform to promote and celebrate international diversity, making it an ideal occasion for the world’s busiest international hub to align with," said Michelle Lee, Vice President of Brand and Communications at Dubai Airports.

Adding to the celebrations, guests can enjoy live broadcasts of the international sports festival at various food and beverage outlets, which will offer special menus to support the sporting cheer.
