Located North of Riyadh, in close proximity to King Khalid International Airport (KKIA) and to the prestigious King Abdullah Petroleum Studies and Research Center (KAPSARC), and directly connected to the city’s most iconic destinations.

With a total size of 6 million m2, the site is designed as a futuristic city around an ancient wadi, it embodies both the “oasis” and “garden” origin of Riyadh and the vision of the country to pioneer a sustainable future for cities and their communities.

The compact and inclusive site is designed with pedestrian accessibility and discovery in mind, with a focus on visitor comfort in both pavilions and public spaces.

The site offers 3.38 million m2 of experiential space within the gated area, about 432,000 m2 for national pavilions, and 2.62 million m2 for supporting amenities and facilities.

With the objective to enhance the natural environment rather than replace it, the site develops around the existing wadi network which is fully integrated into the thematic and cultural story.

From public parks to e-game spaces, and from large-scale performance stages to sports venues, the Expo site will accommodate a rich programme of entertainment, cultural and sporting activities.
