RIBA at Cityscape Global 2025

RIBA will be attending Cityscape Global in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from 17 to 20 November 2025

We will be attending Cityscape Global in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from 17 to 20 November 2025.

Following a successful programme of activities at Cityscape Global 2024, we are delighted to announce our return to the world’s largest exhibition for real estate and urban development. This year we will once again host a RIBA delegation from a dedicated stand in a prime location, featuring RIBA-accredited Chartered Practices, members of the RIBA CPD Providers Network, Manufacturers and our Corporate Partners.

Our delegation includes a dedicated staff team covering Products and services and Membership experience. They will be on hand to support our delegates in networking with colleagues and clients and to provide guidance and learning opportunities about working in KSA through a series of familiarisation events.

The delegation will champion the value of working with RIBA-chartered architects and our network of manufacturers emphasising their role in delivering excellence in design, creating a sustainable future, and advocating the importance of diversity and inclusion within architecture and the built environment. We will highlight the client benefits of working with Chartered Practices and promote the value of Chartered Practice membership and the CPD Providers Network to architects and businesses in the built environment.
