World Luxury EXPO To Make Asian Debut In Seoul
According to worldluxuryexpo-seoul.com, the seventh edition of World Luxury Expo series of events, will take place in Seoul at the splendid Grand Hyatt from 3-5 September 2014.
With a combined total exhibition space of over 2,100 square meters, Citi World Luxury Expo, Seoul will showcase the world’s leading luxury brands to an invitation-only three day exhibition that will showcase masterpieces of renowned international brands to invited VIP guests.
Towering nine meters into the sky will be the XCOR Aerospace 1:1 scale model of the Lynx Mark 1 spaceship. Something for the luxury traveller who aspires to an “out of this world” experience by crossing the ultimate boundary into space.
Graham Cooke comments, “In complimentary fashion, the Grand Hyatt host venue was chosen as it boasts fine hospitality supported by tranquil surrounds and an elegant atmosphere. This is our 7th World Luxury Expo, having already completed a successful annual Expo series in the Middle East luxury capitals (namely Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Jeddah & two in Riyadh).
Seoul has been chosen as the first city in our Asian series. The luxury market here in Korea is sophisticated and Korea holds strategic importance to the greater Asian luxury market, most notably the influence that Korea now has in the region with the “Korean Wave” phenomenon and trends emanating from fashion, pop and celebrity culture, which all converge at times to influence the luxury market as well as other sectors.

Seoul is also conveniently located between key luxury markets in mainland China, and Japan which makes the city of great interest to the luxury brands we deal with. My greatest thanks to our sponsors, Citibank (Citi Prestige), Korean Air and L’Oreal Professional, without whom an event of this calibre would not be possible. Their support will enable us to develop World Luxury Expo into an annual signature event for the dynamic mega city of Seoul.”
The Expo in Seoul is the result of a joint effort between World Luxury Group and Korean local partner, Beautiful Life Productions. Comments Tae Sik Oh, Chief Executive Officer at Beautiful Life Productions, “We are proud to partner with World Luxury Group to bring this prestigious event to Seoul.
This event will continue to grow every year for many years to come and we are excited to develop our new partnership with World Luxury Group beyond Korea.” Invited guests will be welcomed to the event with the finest hospitality including hand-made chocolates, caviar and French champagne and rare whisky, writes event website.
