Designed as a “Visionary Lighthouse”, the pavilion stands as a dynamic symbol of the ambitious national development plan, New Kuwait 2035, seamlessly integrating the nation’s rich heritage, innovation, and sustainability in a transformative visitor experience that engages audiences from around the world.

Located in the “Empowering Lives” district, the pavilion’s design draws inspiration from Kuwait’s maritime and desert landscapes, reflecting the nation’s journey of resilience, progress, and forward-looking spirit.

Kuwait’s participation in Expo 2025 Osaka highlights the continuation of a long-standing relationship between Kuwait and Japan, built on economic collaboration, cultural exchange, and mutual respect. Having first participated in Expo Osaka in 1970, Kuwait returns 55 years later with a pavilion that emphasises the country’s expanding influence in regional and international development.

Salem Al-Watyan, Commissioner General of the State of Kuwait Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka, said: "Our presence at Expo 2025 Osaka is a testament to Kuwait’s enduring friendship with Japan. The pavilion reflects our rich heritage and our commitment to shaping a sustainable and innovative future, highlighting Kuwait’s vision as a leader in global collaboration."

Dr. Naser Al Daihani, Director of the State of Kuwait Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka, said: "This pavilion captures Kuwait’s ambition and resilience, offering visitors a unique journey connecting the past and the future. As we celebrate our participation in this global event, we look forward to fostering new partnerships and further enhancing Kuwait’s global presence and influence."

Complementing the architecture, the pavilion’s visual identity draws from the natural elements of Kuwait.

The pavilion’s interactive and immersive interior invites visitors on a multi-sensory journey through Kuwait’s rich past and its bold aspirations for a sustainable, innovative, and technology-driven future. Through storytelling and exhibits, the experience highlights Kuwait’s commitment to empowering lives through progress, knowledge, and collaboration.

The Pavilion's bold, open design blends seamlessly into the public realm while making a strong visual impact.

The pavilion’s inauguration featured the spectacular Pearl Lighting Show, an evocative tribute to Kuwait’s maritime heritage and future aspirations.

The Kuwait Pavilion promises to be one of the most compelling attractions at Expo 2025 Osaka.
