Visit Oman.
Come for COMEX, stay for the country. Oman blends rich heritage and dramatic natural beauty with world-class infrastructure — all minutes from the show floor in Muscat.
The Sultanate of Oman offers a rare combination — ancient forts and bustling souqs alongside modern, world-class business infrastructure. Hosting COMEX 2027 at the Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre, it positions Muscat as a destination where culture, nature and technology meet.
In partnership with Visit Oman, COMEX makes it easy to extend your trip. Muscat International Airport is just 15 minutes from the venue, served by Oman Air and major regional carriers — and a host of hotels sit within minutes of the show.
From a morning at the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque to an afternoon dune drive in the Wahiba Sands, February is one of the best times of year to explore Oman’s warm, sunny coast and mountains.
