Big 5 Construct Saudi, the kingdom’s largest construction event, will return to the Riyadh Front Exhibition and Conference Center next year after putting up a spectacular performance in its 11th edition featuring 820 local and international exhibitors from 40 countries who collectively showcased latest products and services and technological innovation that cater to the entire construction value chain.

Companies signed $560.6 million worth of deals at the show in 2023, with $1.12 billion generated in expected sales, said the event organisers.

With its largest international presence to-date, the four-day show had 12 dedicated country pavilions demonstrating distinctive construction solutions from Austria, China, Egypt, Germany, Greece, India, Italy, Kuwait, Poland, Qatar, Spain, and Turkiye.

Saudi Arabia's PIF-backed ambitious gigaprojects including Neom, Red Sea Global, Diriyah Company, Qiddiya, and Roshn attended the show and engaged in various content programmes.

The event provided an opportunity for these developments to collaborate with industry experts, suppliers, and investors to further advance their development plans.

“The phenomenal 104% year-on-year increase in visitor attendance at Big 5 Construct Saudi 2023 is a testament to the event's unwavering commitment to delivering value to its stakeholders. This incredible achievement firmly positions Big 5 Construct Saudi as a leading player in the Saudi construction landscape,”
