The Global Wellness Summit (GWS), has announced the relocation of its highly anticipated, 17th annual conference. In light of recent developments and growing concerns surrounding instability in the Middle East region, GWS has made the difficult but necessary decision to relocate the 2023 event from Doha, Qatar to Miami, Florida. Despite the change in location to the Grand Hyatt Miami, the dates for the Summit remain unchanged, taking place from November 6-9, 2023. 

“The decision to move the conference to Miami comes in response to recent developments in the Middle East region and with the safety of delegates, speakers, team members, and partners in mind,” said Nancy Davis, chief creative officer & executive director at GWS. “This decision was made in close coordination with Msheireb Properties, our host sponsors in Qatar, and we appreciate all they are doing to make this transition as smooth as possible. We look forward to bringing the Summit to Qatar in the next couple of years.”
