COVID-19: Dubai World Cup IS Going Ahead But Without fans
The time for Dubai World Cup is fast approaching, and it IS going ahead, minus the spectators.
Globally, large scale events have been cancelled in a bid to curb COVID-19, however, some sporting events are continuing as planned, Dubai World Cup included.
The most anticipated event on the Dubai racing calendar, and the richest, will take place as scheduled at Meydan Racecourse, minus the throngs of spectators who annually flock to fill the paid hospitality areas.
