As Saudi Arabia's aviation sector rapidly evolves, the third edition of Saudi Airport Exhibition, scheduled for November 11-12 at the Riyadh International Convention and Exhibition Center, will serve as a premier platform to showcase the Kingdom’s ambitious airport development plans.

This year, the exhibition will bring together major companies, airport operators, and service providers from around the world, fostering collaboration and innovation to support the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 goals. Aligned with the vision of establishing Saudi Arabia as a leading aviation hub, the event will highlight expansion and sustainability efforts aimed at connecting over 250 destinations and supporting unprecedented passenger growth and economic diversification.

With Saudi airports recording significant increases in passenger and cargo traffic—15% in passenger movement and 52% in cargo—the exhibition arrives at a crucial time. Airport operators, technology innovators, construction firms, and aviation professionals will come together to explore advancements in airport infrastructure, ground handling, air traffic management, and sustainable technologies. As Saudi Arabia aims to increase annual passenger capacity to 330 million by 2030, the event is essential for international and local stakeholders seeking to invest and innovate in one of the world’s most dynamic aviation markets.

Saudi Airport Exhibition, bringing together top industry leaders and multinational companies, reinforces the Kingdom’s position as a regional aviation hub. This esteemed event is backed by notable sponsors, with Matarat Holding as the Main Sponsor, SAFARI Group as the Platinum Sponsor, SITA and METCO as Gold Sponsors, Samana Special Mission as the Badge Sponsor, and METCO as the Lanyard Sponsor. Featuring panels, workshops, a unique matchmaking program, and an awarding ceremony, the exhibition provides a central platform for networking, fostering partnerships, and driving innovation in the aviation sector.

Alongside Saudi Airport Exhibition, the Global Aviation Issues Conference will bring together stakeholders and experts to address pressing challenges and opportunities in the aviation sector. Supported by SAFARI Group as the Platinum Sponsor, Vanderlande, Amadeus, and Parsons as Silver Sponsors, O'Hare & Midway International Airports as Lanyard Sponsor, and San Francisco International Airport as the Bag Sponsor, the conference underscores a commitment to advancing industry dialogue and solutions on a global scale.

Adding further dimension to the exhibition, the Women in Aviation General Assembly will celebrate the achievements and future potential of women in aviation. Led by Cluster2 as the Principal Sponsor, with Red Sea International Airport as the Gold Sponsor, Lagardère Travel Retail as the Event Supporter, and Airline Partners flyadeal and Qatar Airways, this assembly aims to empower women and drive inclusivity within the industry.

Rounding out the event, the Airport Excellence Awards 2024 will honor exemplary contributions across critical industry categories. Winners and runners-up will be announced for categories including: Airport Design and Infrastructure; Airport Revenue Optimization; Airport Security; Baggage Handling; Facility Management; Ground Support Solutions; Infrastructure Expansion; Innovation and Technology; Passenger Experience; and Sustainability and Environment.

Together, these initiatives reflect Saudi Arabia’s commitment to an ambitious $147 billion airport expansion strategy, projected to add $75 billion to GDP by 2030 and create thousands of jobs. Each event, award, and conference contributes to building a sustainable and resilient aviation industry, reinforcing the Kingdom’s vision for transformative growth in the region and beyond.
