The Kingdom’s leading platform for security, safety and fire protection returns from 16–18 November 2026 at Riyadh Front Exhibition & Conference Center (RFECC), increasing exhibition space by 40% to meet demand as Saudi Arabia accelerates investment across key industry sectors.
Organized by Messe Frankfurt Saudi Arabia, the 2026 edition is expected to welcome over 25,000 visitors and more than 500 exhibitors, including Bristol, NAFFCO, Axis, Genetic, Saudi Sicli and Al Alamya. The event will bring together global suppliers, policymakers and buyers across commercial and perimeter security, homeland security and policing, fire and rescue, safety and health, and cybersecurity.
This expansion reflects the rapid growth of Saudi Arabia’s fire and security markets, driven by large-scale infrastructure projects including NEOM, Red Sea Global, Qiddiya and Diriyah Gate, alongside growing demand for advanced technologies, investment opportunities and international partnerships.
