Cityscape Global 2026 will convene in Riyadh from November 16-19, bringing together developers, investors, and government officials to explore opportunities within Saudi Arabia's rapidly expanding property sector.

Riyadh is poised to host Cityscape Global 2026, a prominent real estate exhibition and conference, from November 16-19 at the Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Centre in Malham. The event aims to spotlight Saudi Arabia's dynamic property market and its role in the Kingdom's broader economic transformation, attracting global developers and investors.

Organized by Tahaluf, Cityscape Global 2026 receives support from key government entities including the Ministry of Municipalities and Housing, the Real Estate General Authority, Vision 2030, and the Housing Program. The exhibition serves as a crucial platform where governmental strategic objectives intersect with private investment, facilitating the unveiling of significant projects to an international audience.

Last year's edition of Cityscape Global underscored the market's vitality, recording over $63 billion in signed agreements and on-site transactions. It drew more than 164,000 attendees from over 120 nations, indicating its substantial global appeal. For 2026, the event anticipates over 600 exhibitors, aiming to further enhance its international reach.
