The fourth edition will no longer take place on 26–28 November 2026, with organisers confirming that existing bookings and registrations will carry forward
Lift City Expo Riyadh’s fourth edition has been postponed from its scheduled dates of 26–28 November 2026. Organisers attributed the decision to regional circumstances affecting the Middle East, particularly Riyadh, and their implications for participant safety and event logistics. The exhibition had been scheduled at The Arena Riyadh Venue for Exhibitions in Saudi Arabia. LinkedIn
In their postponement notice, organisers said the decision followed an assessment of unforeseen conditions across the region. They identified the safety, security and logistical welfare of international and local exhibitors, speakers and visitors as the main considerations. LinkedIn
The announcement stated that organisers were working with the venue and local authorities to secure replacement dates, with an update expected by the end of November. However, the official event website now displays 7–9 September 2027 at The Arena Riyadh Venue for Exhibitions. This updates the earlier position that revised dates were still awaited. LinkedIn
Existing exhibitor bookings, booth allocations and sponsorship arrangements will remain valid for the rescheduled event, according to the postponement notice. Visitor registrations will also transfer automatically, with no additional action required from registered attendees. Organisers have directed urgent enquiries to info@liftcityexpo.com. LinkedIn
