Saudi Exhibitions Calendar 2026 and 2027
Exhibitions in Saudi Arabia 2027: The Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam Calendar
Every trade show and major exhibition in Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam from November 2026 to December 2027, taken only from the organiser or venue page, sorted by month and city, and with one line under each show saying what you need to have ready before it opens. We build stands for these halls every month, so this exhibition calendar is the one we work from ourselves.
How to Read This Calendar
Three rules kept this page honest, and they are the reason it is shorter than the aggregator lists.
Only the organiser's own dates
A show is listed when its organiser, its venue or the ministry behind it has published the dates. Aggregator calendars copy each other and keep cancelled editions alive; we linked the official page under every entry so you can check it yourself.
Month first, then city
Within each month the Riyadh exhibitions come first, then Jeddah, then Dammam, in date order. Riyadh Front, Malham and RICEC are different halls with different build rules, so the venue is named on every card.
What you need before it
Under each show is the one thing to have in hand before the build window: a custom stand, a modular kit, a sponsor corner or a selling display. The link goes to our page for that city, where the timeline and the organiser rules are explained.
Exhibitions in Saudi Arabia 2027 and Late 2026, Month by Month
From the last quarter of 2026 to the end of 2027. A month with no card is a month where no organiser has confirmed a show yet, not a quiet month: the pending list further down names what usually fills it.

The Same Calendar by City
Where the shows cluster decides where your stand should be built and stored. Riyadh carries most of the trade shows, Jeddah the consumer and food shows, Dammam the industrial ones.
Riyadh exhibitions
Riyadh Front near the airport for the large international shows, Malham for LEAP, Cityscape and Black Hat, RICEC on King Abdullah Road for the Riyadh Exhibitions Company shows and The Arena for consumer fairs. Our team installs in all four.
Jeddah exhibitions
The Jeddah International Exhibition and Convention Center for Foodex and Jeddah Construct, Benchmark for the Sunaidi consumer fairs and the Superdome for the largest food and Hajj shows. Our workshop is twenty minutes from all three.
Dammam exhibitions
Dhahran Expo carries the industrial calendar of the Eastern Province: machinery, static equipment, pumps and valves, construction and interiors. A day's drive from our Jeddah stock, so the kit is on site the night before the build window.
Announced Soon: Shows Awaiting Their 2027 Dates

What to Have Ready Before Any Show
Four dates that sit before the opening date, counted backwards. Miss the first and the rest compress into overtime.
Eight weeks before: the brief and the rules
Space size, open sides, the organiser's exhibitor manual and the budget. Height limits, rigging, double decks and fire-rated materials are decided here, not on site.
Six weeks before: the approved design
A 3D design signed off, with the drawings the organiser asks for submitted. From this point the workshop is cutting, not debating.
Two weeks before: print and dry assembly
Graphics printed and checked against the panels, the stand test-built in the workshop, and the transport booked for the build window in the exhibitor manual.
Build window: install, open, dismantle
Our own team installs inside the organiser's hours, stays through the opening, and dismantles the night the show closes. What goes to storage is decided before, not after.
The full cost picture for each of these steps is in our guide to exhibition stand cost in Saudi Arabia, and the stand itself can be reused at the next show on this calendar if the dismantling is planned.
Built for These Halls
Our stands have stood at Riyadh Front, RICEC, the Jeddah Superdome and the Jeddah exhibition center, for the Heritage Commission, Ascenda, Swarovski, Gucci and Saudia among others, all designed and built in our own Jeddah workshop. Every project on our portfolio page was actually delivered.
Questions About Exhibitions in Saudi Arabia 2027
What exhibitors ask when they plan the year.
Where do the dates on this calendar come from?
From the organiser's own site, the venue's calendar or the ministry behind the show, and nowhere else. The official page is linked under every entry. We re-check the list every month and move or remove any show whose organiser changes it.
Which are the biggest exhibitions in Saudi Arabia in 2027?
By floor space and exhibitor count: Big 5 Saudi in May and September, LEAP in April, bauma Saudi Arabia in May, the Riyadh International Industry Week in April, INDEX with the Hotel and Hospitality Expo in September and Global Health in October, all in Riyadh.
Why are there no shows in February, July and August 2027?
No organiser had confirmed a show in those months when the page was last updated. Summer is traditionally quiet in the Kingdom's halls, and several recurring shows are still choosing their 2027 dates; they are listed in the pending section.
How early should I book a stand for a show on this list?
Eight weeks before opening for a custom stand, four weeks for a modular stand with new graphics, and two weeks for a rental kit from stock. For the large Riyadh shows the organiser's own deadlines for drawings and rigging come earlier, and those are in the exhibitor manual.
Can a stand built for one show be used at the next one?
Yes, if dismantling and storage are planned before the first show. The frame, counters and lighting travel; the graphics are reprinted to the new space. Most of our clients on this calendar exhibit twice a year with one stand.
Do you build in Riyadh and Dammam as well as Jeddah?
Yes. The workshop and stock are in Jeddah, and our own installation team works in Riyadh Front, Malham, RICEC, The Arena, Dhahran Expo and the Jeddah halls, with transport and the on-site team named as lines in the quote.
What do the Riyadh venues require that others do not?
Riyadh Front and Malham ask for stand drawings and a structural declaration for anything above the standard height, and for fire-rated materials with certificates. RICEC has tighter loading windows. We read each manual and submit the drawings as part of the stand service.
Can you tell me when a show on the pending list gets its dates?
Send the show name on WhatsApp and we will reply the day the organiser publishes the dates, with the deadline you need to work back from.
Exhibiting at One of These Shows?
Send the show name, your stand size and the open sides. Within 24 hours you have an itemised quote and a timeline counted back from the opening date on this calendar.
