The largest global maritime & logistics event in the Kingdom

Saudi Maritime Congress provides an opportunity to meet and do business with an international audience of maritime and shipping industry professionals, key decision-makers and government entities.

Whether you are an exhibitor or a visitor, the two-day event will help you connect with many businesses and learn about the key investment opportunities in the Kingdom.

Event Update | The Third Saudi Maritime Congress will now take place in 2021.

Since announcing the first postponement of the Third Saudi Maritime Congress earlier this year, we have been liaising with our Founding Strategic Partners MAWANI and Bahri, as well as monitoring official guidance on border controls, international flights as well as events and exhibitions within the Kingdom.

We now believe that September 2020 is not the correct time for us to deliver the exceptional maritime event the industry deserves. Therefore, it is with regret that we announce Saudi Maritime Congress will be postponed to the first half of 2021 with the exact dates to be announced soon.

We look forward to welcoming you to an exceptional event in 2021!

We confidently look forward to the conference, which represents an important step towards keeping pace with developments in the global maritime and logistics sector. We seek to continue fruitful cooperation with the public and private sectors to promote this vital sector, successfully connect bridges with three continents and make the Kingdom a global logistics center.
