Condé Nast Celebrates Middle East Expansion

A landmark evening for Condé Nast saw the celebration of the launch of its four flagship brands: Vogue Arabia, GQ Middle East, Architectural Digest Middle East and Condé Nast Traveller Middle East, through a series of exclusive events in Dubai.

The celebrations brought together key figures in the media and luxury industries, including Anna Wintour, Chief Content Officer of Condé Nast and Global Editorial Director of Vogue, and Roger Lynch, CEO of Condé Nast, alongside local leadership and influential personalities to commemorate this significant expansion into the region.

The evening kicked off with a special conversation at Commodore Club, Jumeirah Residences Marsa Al Arab, featuring the Heads of Editorial Content Manuel Arnaut (Vogue Arabia) joined by Moroccan Egyptian model, Imaan Hammam, Amine Jreissati (GQ Middle East), Talib Choudhry (Architectural Digest Middle East), Selina Denman (Condé Nast Traveller Middle East) and Thomas Khoury, the company’s Managing Director of the Middle East region. Divia Thani, Global Editorial Director, Condé Nast Traveller and Adam Baidawi, Deputy Global Editorial Director, GQ also joined the discussion, highlighting the importance of the Middle East region in shaping the future of media.

Following this, Condé Nast hosted the inaugural Gold List event in Dubai, one of Condé Nast Traveller's signature events, at Nuska Garden, Jumeirah Beach Hotel with the iconic Jumeirah Burj Al Arab as the backdrop. This event underscored Dubai’s growing prominence as a global hub for luxury travel and hospitality.

Curated by Condé Nast Traveller’s global editorial team, it recognizes the very best in travel, showcasing a carefully selected group of properties that stand out for their exceptional service, design, and innovation in the hospitality industry.
