Student Fair
The 2025 International Education Fair Saudi Arabia is a leading academic event hosted across the Kingdom’s three major cities—Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam. This event offers international academic institutions a unique platform to engage directly students, parents, teachers and counselors from some of Saudi Arabia’s most prominent educational establishments. It also offers a diverse range of interactive sessions and networking opportunities designed to enhance the educational experience for both participating institutions and attendees.
Why take part in the Education Fair Saudi Arabia?
With over 10 years of expertise in international education event management, we identified a strong need for a curated, boutique-style education fair specifically tailored to the Saudi Arabian market. As interest from academic institutions continues to grow, so does the demand for impactful engagement opportunities with students across the Kingdom. In response, we are proud to present this study abroad fair in Saudi Arabia— a focused initiative designed to connect global academic institutions with prospective students in Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam, and to provide a vital platform for educational guidance and recruitment within one of the region’s most dynamic student populations.
Key reasons to take part
- Connect with Saudi Arabia’s diverse and dynamic student population.
- Expand your reach and position your country as a top study destination.
- Build valuable relationships within Saudi Arabia’s thriving education sector.
- Elevate your brand visibility and strengthen its presence in the region.
The Saudi Arabian Student Recruitment Market
Saudi Arabia has emerged as a significant international student recruitment market, with a consistently high number of students pursuing higher education abroad. As of recent data, over 70,000 Saudi students are studying overseas, supported in large part by government scholarship programs such as the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Scholarship Program.
Traditional top destinations include the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, although recent years have seen growing interest in countries like Germany, Malaysia, and the United Arab Emirates, reflecting a diversification of study preferences. Trends indicate a strong demand for programs in STEM, health sciences, and business, as well as increased interest in institutions that offer flexible learning formats, such as hybrid or online study.
With a young, education-focused population and ongoing national efforts to invest in human capital development under Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia continues to be a strategically important market for international student recruitment.
