With new exhibitors signing up every day and the programme for the accompanying conference being close to finished, the inaugural FSB show in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, is ready to make a splash.

Saudi Arabia is increasingly becoming a sports destination. This development is backed by the Saudi Royal Joint Ventures Foundation (SRJF) and a $2.7 billion Sports Ministry programme. Driven by Vision 2030 and the rights to host the FIFA World Cup 2034, the country is rapidly expanding its sports infrastructure.

FSB Riyadh will bring together close to 200 exhibitors from 25+ countries. This includes some of the major brands in the turf industry: Edel Grass, Greenfields, Yardex, Mondo, Standard Carpet, Qindao Bellinturf and SIS Pitches. They are complemented by industry suppliers like Acousto Scan, SMG maintenance equipment, Melos, Mattex and Matco.

Speakers who will be delivering presentations include Stefan Diderich, Director General of ESTC, Professor David James of Labosport, Robert Rossing of Mattex and Tobias Owegeser of SMG.
