The Diriyah Gate Development Authority is preparing to participate in the 2026 Saudi International Falcons and Hunting Exhibition, held in Riyadh from October 1 to 10, under the slogan “A Destination for All.” The authority is participating under the title “A Pride to Be Bequeathed,” as a “legacy partner,” to highlight the historical and cultural value of the historic Al-Turaif neighborhood, and to introduce aspects of Diriyah’s living heritage.

During its participation this year, the Authority is focusing on the historic Al-Turaif neighborhood, which has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2010, as part of the exhibition’s annual initiative to introduce World Heritage sites in the Kingdom and highlight their historical and cultural value.

Participation reflects the efforts of the Diriyah Gate Development Authority to preserve and publicize the historical and cultural heritage of the cradle of the Saudi state, as the Al-Turaif neighborhood represents political depth and a living legacy, as the center of rule of the first Saudi state.

The authority’s pavilion provides an integrated experience that begins by introducing the visitor to Diriyah and the Al-Turaif neighborhood through digital and visual content that highlights the architectural, cultural and historical importance of the neighborhood, in addition to reviewing aspects of the history of the imams of the first Saudi state and the values ​​associated with them.

The visitor's journey concludes with an experience inspired by Saudi hospitality and Arabic calligraphy, as an extension of the cultural content of the pavilion, and a reflection of the values ​​and cultural evidence associated with Diriyah and its living heritage.

The Saudi International Falcons and Hunting Exhibition is one of the largest exhibitions specialized in falconry, flights and their supplies in the world, and annually attracts interested people, specialists and relevant parties from inside and outside the Kingdom.

The exhibition also contributes to introducing Saudi heritage and enhancing its sustainability, in addition to supporting investment opportunities and partnerships in sectors related to it.
