CIDEX 2026, the International Construction and Interior Design Expo, will be held at Dhahran Expo in Dammam from 14 to 17 December. The exhibition is organised by Creative XP and serves the construction, building materials and interior design sectors of Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province.
The show covers construction materials and systems, building technology, interiors and finishes, and the contractors, developers, architects and suppliers that serve the project pipeline in Dammam, Khobar, Dhahran and Jubail. The Eastern Province is the centre of the kingdom's oil, gas and petrochemical industry and is seeing sustained investment in housing, commercial property and industrial facilities.
The event is relevant to executives in construction, real estate and building materials because the Eastern Province project pipeline is served by a distinct set of contractors and suppliers from Riyadh and Jeddah, and because Dhahran Expo is the region's main exhibition venue. Chief executives of developers, contractors and materials companies use CIDEX to meet regional buyers and partners.
Registration for exhibitors and visitors is published on the official CIDEX site. Dhahran Expo also hosts the region's energy and industrial trade shows during the year.
