Huawei and Dubai Racing Club have signed a season long partnership for the 2026 to 27 Dubai Racing Carnival and the Dubai World Cup, bringing smart health technology and interactive family experiences to racegoers at Meydan Racecourse.
The partnership was formalised with a Memorandum of Understanding signed by Bruce Li, President of Huawei Consumer Business Group, Middle East and Africa, and Ali Al Ali, CEO and Board Member of Dubai Racing Club, setting out a framework for collaboration throughout the season.

At the heart of the collaboration is the Huawei Experience Pavilion, where visitors can explore smart devices and discover how connected technology can support health awareness, fitness, creativity and everyday life. Interactive displays and digital content will be woven into the race day experience across Meydan.
Huawei will also appear in some of the season’s established highlights, including the Dubai World Cup Style Stakes, Faces At The Races powered by Huawei, family race days and fan programmes, with device giveaways and gifts for horsemen.
The move builds on Huawei’s involvement in Dubai Run and Dubai Ride, and its 2026 partnership with Dubai Sports World, as part of its wider work encouraging active, healthy lifestyles across the city.
“Our partnership with Huawei marks a significant moment for the Dubai Racing Carnival,” said Ali Al Ali. “Their generous prize programme will bring new excitement to race nights, reward our fans and support our horsemen. We are delighted to welcome Huawei into the Dubai Racing Club family for the season ahead.”
The 2026 to 27 Dubai Racing Carnival runs from 6 November 2026 until the end of March 2027, with the Dubai World Cup on 27 March 2027. More at dubairacingclub.com.
