The Big 5, Dubai
23–26 Nov 2026 · Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Big 5 Global is a large construction exhibition held each November at the Dubai World Trade Centre and organised by dmg events. The organiser reports more than 65,000 attendees, 1,800 exhibitors and participants from 165 countries, across building materials, interiors, finishes and building services.
Natural stone has its own co-located event, Marble & Stone World, with more than 80 specialised exhibitors from over 15 countries and five country pavilions. More than 7,500 visitors to the 2025 show were interested in marble and stone products, according to the organiser.
Most of those stone visitors come from the Gulf, 62% from GCC countries, which makes it a practical place for contractors, developers, architects and buyers working on projects in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and the wider region to meet suppliers of natural stone, tiles and engineered surfaces. Other co-located events include Windows, Doors & Facades, Urban Design & Landscape and Totally Concrete.
The Dubai World Trade Centre is on Sheikh Zayed Road, and Dubai International Airport (DXB) is the nearest airport.
