The prestigious World Wrap Masters competition is coming to FESPA Middle East from 20-22 January 2025 at the Dubai Exhibition Centre, inviting skilled wrappers and vehicle wrap enthusiasts to showcase their talents on a global stage. As part of an international series, this unique event combines top talent in vehicle wrapping and creative vinyl applications and will culminate in the World Wrap Masters Final in Berlin in May 2025.
This exciting competition offers regional participants an unmatched opportunity to learn from internationally renowned wrap experts. Workshops and demonstrations will be held in conjunction with The Wrap Institute, providing valuable insights and tips on achieving flawless vinyl application. Participants will also have the chance to impress a panel of expert judges as they complete a series of challenging wraps in categories such as colour change wraps, paint protection film (PPF), and printed vinyl application on vehicles and various objects.
Bazil Cassim, Regional Manager (Middle East & Africa) at FESPA, said, “The World Wrap Masters competition at FESPA Middle East offers an unrivalled opportunity for the region’s wrapping community to showcase their skills and learn from world-renowned experts.
