BETTER CITY, BETTER LIFE. The World Expo is a global event on a grand scale. It aims to promote the exchange of ideas, improve international understanding, develop world economy and focus on the future. The UK staged the first Great Exhibition in 1851 and in three years' time, Shanghai will host the event. This represents a milestone in China's international standing and through a central theme of Better City, Better Life, visitors and exhibitors will be invited to explore topics including economic prosperity, sustainability, city remodelling, improving the quality of life, and the interaction between city and countryside. The Shanghai Expo opens in May 2010 and will run every day for six months, with visitors to the UK's British Pavilion likely to average 50,000 people a day.
