The Gulf Bar Show gathers the MENA and Asia’s bar and beverage industry’s best talent and brands to learn, network, make deals, and explore regional and global trends. And while they meet at award ceremonies and openings here and there, they’ve had little space to mingle properly with their own kind and those moving their industry. From the troops on the ground to the region’s biggest distributors
