The live “Al-Khayyal” experience gives visitors an opportunity to explore Saudi Arabia’s equestrian heritage alongside the exhibition’s falconry and cultural activities.
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – September 2026: Horses and equestrian traditions will take centre stage at the Saudi Falcons and Hunting Exhibition 2026, offering visitors a live experience that brings them closer to an important part of Saudi heritage.
As part of the exhibition’s theme, “An Experience for Everyone,” the “Al-Khayyal” experience introduces visitors to equestrianism and related skills, allowing them to see horses and engage with the experience up close.
The experience adds another element of Saudi heritage to an exhibition traditionally associated with falconry, hunting, desert journeys and outdoor traditions.
Connecting Generations with Equestrian Heritage
Horses and falcons have long been connected to Saudi culture, with equestrian skills and traditions passed down through generations. The exhibition presents these traditions through experiences that allow visitors to see and interact with them rather than simply learn about them.
The equestrian experience is designed for a broad range of visitors, particularly families, children and young people. It offers younger generations an opportunity to discover the role of horses in Saudi heritage and experience equestrian traditions firsthand.
The experience will be presented alongside other heritage and entertainment activities at the exhibition, including falconry, the Al-Miqnas experience and folkloric performances.
Saudi Falcons and Hunting Exhibition 2026
Organised by the Saudi Falcons Club, the Saudi Falcons and Hunting Exhibition 2026 will take place from October 1 to 10 at the Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Center in Malham, north of Riyadh.
Through its live heritage experiences, the exhibition aims to strengthen younger generations’ connection with Saudi culture while giving families and young visitors opportunities to explore traditional knowledge and skills in an interactive setting.
