【By 2Firsts, Dubai】On June 20th, the World Vape Show Dubai 2025, which has attracted widespread attention from the global industry, entered its third day at the Dubai World Trade Center. At the exhibition site, 2Firsts found that many brands showcased a variety of new - style hookah products in different forms.

Some exhibitors told 2Firsts that at present, the Middle East and some European markets have a stable and large group of hookah users. The common flavors and usage experience of traditional e - cigarettes can no longer meet the consumption needs of these users. Therefore, many brands have successively launched new - style hookah devices that are closer to the traditional hookah experience. They hope to maintain the traditional hookah smoke volume and flavor reproduction while realizing portability and technological upgrading.
