The International Saudi Falcons and Hunting Exhibition 2026 opened on 1 October at the Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Center in Malham, north of Riyadh. A Saudi Press Agency report published that day said the event was scheduled to run through 10 October. Organised by the National Center for Falcons, the ten-day programme covers falconry and hunting as well as adventure, travel, cultural and educational experiences.

The center’s chief executive, Talal Al-Shamaisi, told the agency that the exhibition’s growth and variety reflected support for preserving falconry and passing the tradition to future generations.

The report provided no attendee or exhibitor total, ticket revenue or measure of the event’s economic impact.
