May 7 marks a significant milestone for Jumeirah as it unveils a new brand identity, signalling a bold step in its strategy to double its portfolio by 2030. This transformation is the beginning of a brand evolution aimed at redefining luxury for discerning travellers, building on Jumeirah's foundation of generous hospitality. The luxury brand is set to reinforce its role as a pioneer in the industry, offering curated experiences that influence perceptions and set trends.
As Jumeirah embarks on an accelerated growth path, it has unveiled several new properties, including Jumeirah Red Sea in Saudi Arabia, Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab in the UAE, and Jumeirah Le Richemond in Geneva, Switzerland.

Today, we're poised for the future, embracing our pioneering spirit to drive sustainable growth. Our refreshed visual identity and commitment to exceptional guest experiences mark the beginning of our expansion, both regionally and internationally. With a solid foundation and a dedicated team, I am confident in Jumeirah's continued leadership in luxury hospitality."
The launch of Jumeirah’s new brand identity is celebrated with an innovative display at the Jumeirah Burj Al Arab, showcasing the brand's origin and vision for the future. The iconic structure will feature a captivating projection that culminates in the unveiling of the updated Jumeirah signature and a modernized symbol. This symbol, a blend of traditional calligraphy and contemporary design, reflects the brand's heritage and forward-looking ambitions.
