The Higher Organising Committee for the International Defence Exhibition and Conference (IDEX), have met to cuss preparations for IDEX’s Grand Opening Ceremony, the first stages of which will begin on the 28th of January.

Helicopters, jets from the Al Fursan aerobatics team and transport aircraft will begin their rehearsals in the skies above the Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Centre Grandstand.

“This ceremony is a key moment of the Middle East’s largest joint defence exhibition; Abu Dhabi will be on the world stage, and it’s important we get it right.” said Major General Obaid Al Ketbi, Head of the 2013 IDEX Higher Organising Committee.
