In response to this burgeoning scale of opportunity, Jeddah Construct, the largest construction event in the Western Province, returns for its second edition from 28 – 30 September 2025 at the new Jeddah Superdome. Following a successful launch in 2024, the exhibition, organized by dmg events and powered by Big 5 Construct Saudi, returns larger, welcoming over 13,000 industry professionals.


Construction sector's growth outlook

Saudi Arabia's construction output value reached $141.5 billion in 2023, a 4.3% increase from the previous year, and is forecast to rise to $181.5 billion by 2028, making it the largest construction market globally (Source: Knight Frank). The Western region, led by Jeddah, is significantly contributing to this growth. Jeddah Central, a $19.9 billion coastal redevelopment, will deliver a marina, beaches, museums, a stadium, and 2,700 hotel rooms. Jeddah Tower, set to surpass 1km, will be the world's tallest building. Restoration of UNESCO-listed Al-Balad, alongside Jeddah Cove and Airport City, underscores the city's dynamic blend of heritage, leisure, commerce and infrastructure.

According to Knight Frank's Construction Landscape Review, the residential sector continues to lead construction output value in Saudi Arabia, accounting for 31% of the total in 2023 at $43.5 billion and expected to reach $56.9 billion by 2028. The power and utilities sector follows closely at $35.1 billion, with growth forecast to $46.5 billion (Source: Knight Frank). The scale and diversity of this pipeline underscore the breadth of opportunity for companies across the construction ecosystem.

With projects reshaping Jeddah's skyline and driving new demand for technologies and expertise, the exhibition offers a timely opportunity for businesses to engage with decision-makers, align with Vision 2030 objectives and contribute to the delivery of one of the fastest-growing construction markets in the world.

Over 3,500 products will be on display, attracting senior buyers, procurement heads, architects, engineers and construction managers seeking solutions for projects of every scale.

“Jeddah Construct reflects the scale and ambition of the construction market in Saudi Arabia's Western Province. With significant investment concentrated in the region, the event offers a strategic setting for companies to connect with industry leaders, present their solutions and explore opportunities aligned with the Kingdom's Vision 2030 objectives,” said Muhammed Kazi, Senior Vice President – Construction at dmg events.“It is an environment where the market's ambitions for growth and the partnerships shaping its future come together.”
