Editions and enquiry routes
The official website lists two 2027 editions, each with its own exhibition-space enquiry route. Check the theme and dates of the edition that fits your objectives before contacting the organizer. Older calendar entries and saved registration links may refer to the completed 2026 season. The MBS 2026 Riyadh calendar keeps those past entries; this guide covers the editions the organizer currently advertises. Visitors should check registration availability, opening hours and eligibility on the official event site. Enquiring about exhibition space and registering as a visitor are separate steps, and neither one orders a booth from MBS. Keep the organizer’s reply and reference number, and contact its team for any correction. If visitor registration for your edition has not opened, check official updates. A past pass or another edition’s form may not apply.
Venue and arrival at Riyadh Front
The current Big 5 site names Riyadh Front Exhibition and Conference Center for both advertised 2027 editions. RICEC is a different venue, so check the destination for travel and deliveries. Confirm the arrival instructions, daily opening hours, hall and entrance for your edition before your visit. Exhibitor space allocation and contractor deliveries may use a different gate or timetable. For accessibility assistance, ask the organizer to confirm the route and support available on your day. For meetings, share the company name, hall and booth number as well as the venue name. If an older brochure shows different dates, use the current event information and check with the organizer before booking. Gate assignments, transport times and parking rules depend on the edition and visitor category, so they are not listed here.
Construction product display checklist
| Display type | Brief the production team on | Confirm with the organizer |
|---|---|---|
| Material samples | Dimensions, weight and the intended mounting arrangement | Restrictions affecting the display or structure |
| Machinery or equipment | Delivery dimensions, movement and operating requirements | Loading access and permitted demonstration conditions |
| Finish collections | Sample sequencing, lighting and replacement access | Allocated footprint and any height restrictions |
| Technical meetings | Seating needs, documents and storage | Badge access and available service arrangements |
Construction product displays
At construction shows, visitors often want to inspect a material finish, compare samples or see how a technical assembly works. List the display items first, with their dimensions, weights and viewing positions. Mark which items are static samples and which will operate during the show. The layout can then allow for visitor circulation, sample storage, meeting space and access to replace or maintain the display. Machinery and heavy samples need a confirmed support design and venue requirements before they go on a counter. A smaller footprint suits a focused sample range; a larger allocation can hold separate display and meeting zones. The right size depends on the product brief and allocated floor plan. MBS reviews the agreed fabrication and installation scope. Technical services, organizer approvals and exhibition-space fees are assigned separately and are not part of the production price unless agreed.
Production schedule and handover
Once your exhibition space is confirmed, request the current exhibitor manual and send it with the floor plan, open sides, product list and required handover date. Ask who handles drawing submissions, service orders, equipment delivery and access permits. Then agree a production schedule that includes design decisions and approvals as well as the public opening date. MBS checks fabrication and installation feasibility before confirming a production slot. If equipment or samples arrive separately, agree the delivery order and a joint inspection. At handover, record the agreed scope, any outstanding action and its owner. Decide which parts will be dismantled for reuse and how they will be packed and transported afterwards. Confirm the build-up deadline for the new edition, as a previous edition’s deadline may not apply. This guide does not claim approved-contractor status or a previous MBS Big 5 build.
