Planning your event at KAFD Conference Center

The KAFD Conference Center sits in King Abdullah Financial District, Riyadh. KAFD announced in March 2024 that ASM Global would operate and manage the centre, which was designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and is LEED Gold certified.

What to include in your enquiry

Send us the event name and organiser, hall or space, confirmed dates and build/dismantle windows, audience size, the organiser or venue manual if you have it, and what you need from us — stand, stage, AV, scenic, fit-out or full production.

Venue booking, ticketing and visitor services are handled by the venue or the event organiser. We are an independent supplier appointed by our client and do not claim official or approved-contractor status at this venue; contractor registration and technical rules are confirmed per event.

How we work with you

  1. Brief — Share the event type, site or venue, dates if confirmed, audience and objectives.
  2. Site & rules check — We review access, power, rigging and the organiser or landlord rules that apply to this site.
  3. Design & proposal — Concept, 3D visuals and an itemised proposal so scope and cost are clear before commitment.
  4. Production & logistics — Off-site fabrication, technical preparation, transport and crew scheduling planned around the site window.
  5. Install, operate, dismantle — On-site build, testing, show support and a planned breakdown with the site handed back as agreed.

Frequently asked questions

Who do we contact to book the KAFD Conference Center?

The venue’s operator handles bookings. We plan production once your event is confirmed there.

Do you have an office or workshop in this location?

Our head office is in Manama, Bahrain, and we run Saudi projects with production capability in Riyadh. We plan delivery to each location project by project — travelling crews, transport and local suppliers where needed — rather than claiming a local office.
