The largest construction event in Saudi Arabia, Big 5 Construct Saudi, returns for its 12th edition to the Riyadh Front Exhibition and Conference Centre on February 26-29.
The top expo will bring together over 1,300 exhibitors, recording a strong 55% increase compared to last year’s edition, from over 40 countries to connect with over 55,000 construction professionals.
As it contributes to the future of the Kingdom’s construction sector, Big 5 Construct Saudi showcases more than 20,000 products and services under nine product sectors in 2024.
It co-locates with four specialized events: HVAC R Expo Saudi, FM Expo Saudi, Stone & Surface Saudi Arabia and Windows, Doors and Facades Event Saudi.
This year, the trade exhibition will host 20 country pavilions, including Germany, China, Greece, Italy, Türkiye, the UAE, the US and Qatar, with Egypt, Jordan, Spain and India joining the lineup for the first time.
Saudi Arabia’s construction sector is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 4% between 2024 and 2027, driven by strategic initiatives focused on economic diversification in alignment with Vision 2030.
