    Weather

    Late November is the most comfortable window in Bahrain: daytime highs sit around 24–28°C with low humidity, evenings fall to about 18–21°C, and rain is rare with only occasional short showers.

Comfortable shoes matter for full days walking the halls at Exhibition World Bahrain.

    Business dress and etiquette

    Smart business or smart-casual dress is expected in the exhibition halls; modest clothing covering shoulders and knees is respectful at mosques, souqs and heritage sites.

    Bahrain's weekend is Friday and Saturday, with reduced corporate hours on Thursday afternoons. Alcohol is served in licensed hotels, restaurants and bars but is not sold in general retail outlets, and public conduct is more conservative during Ramadan.
