Uniting the world of construction and urban development

Big 5 began in 1979, in the heart of Dubai - when a small group of suppliers and stakeholders came together to explore new possibilities for a region on the rise. That was the first edition of Big 5.

That moment marked the beginning of what would become a global portfolio of construction events. Big 5 has evolved in parallel with the region it serves – reflecting and helping to drive the transformation of the Middle East, Africa and South Asia into a magnet for global investment and innovation.
