Saudi Arabia’s participation in the fair is a step toward fostering conversation, advancing friendship and collaboration between the two nations, improving cultural exchange, and boosting cooperation in literature, culture, and the arts.

A number of different Saudi organizations will participate in the fair to showcase the Kingdom’s tradition, wisdom, and cultural diversity. The cultural program will be varied and include talks, workshops, seminars, and artistic performances.
