The Baku Expo 2025 project was presented today during the 164th meeting of the General Assembly of the International Exhibitions Bureau.
The International Exhibitions Bureau will choose the city this evening, which will host the World Expo 2025. Three countries are candidates for hosting Expo 2025, namely, Azerbaijan - Baku, Japan - Osaka, the Russian Federation - Yekaterinburg.
Voting will take place at the 164th General Assembly of the International Exhibitions Bureau in Paris.
The winner will be determined by secret ballot. According to the International Exhibitions Bureau’s regulations, the city with two thirds or more votes will be chosen. If none of the candidates is elected in the first round, the two cities with the majority of votes will pass to the second round, which will be decisive.
If Baku is chosen, then the World Expo 2025 will be held within six months from May 2- Nov. 2, 2025. It will be the first World Exhibition of the International Exhibitions Bureau to be organized in South Caucasus.
