Shaped by the land
Designed around Riyadh’s natural geography, the site follows existing contours inspired by Wadi Al Sulai, creating smoother movement, better water management, and a closer connection between architecture and landscape.
What is a World Expo?
The host city
A global destination
Riyadh is one of the world's fastest-evolving capitals, a city undergoing remarkable transformation. From cultural destinations like Diriyah to world-class projects including Qiddiya, the capital is redefining its global presence. With a strategic position linking three continents, Riyadh offers the scale and ambition befitting a truly global gathering.
A symbolic year
The year 2030 marks the culmination of Vision 2030, a landmark moment for Saudi Arabia. As the world gathers in Riyadh, the Expo will celebrate the Kingdom's transformation and showcase its leadership on the global stage. It's a moment of pride and renewed ambition.
A culture of hospitality
For centuries, this land has been a meeting point where cultures, ideas, and traditions come together. Hospitality, or dhiyafa, lies at the heart of Saudi identity. Expo 2030 Riyadh will carry this tradition onto the global stage, welcoming nations and communities in a spirit of openness and shared purpose.
Where Saudi Vision 2030 meets the world
The Expo site
Spanning 6 million square metres and featuring hundreds of unique pavilions, the site is organised into themed districts to guide visitors through the Expo’s subthemes: transformational technology, sustainable solutions, and prosperous people. Each country will have its own pavilion, providing a dedicated platform to share its vision.
