Riyadh is preparing to host Automechanika Riyadh from 21 to 23 June 2027 at Riyadh Front Exhibition & Conference Center, a new edition bringing manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, buyers and decision-makers in the automotive aftermarket together.
The exhibition returns after the postponement of the 2026 edition, which had been scheduled for 4 to 6 May. Messe Frankfurt Saudi Arabia announced in April 2026 that the next edition would move to 2027, before later announcing its new dates and its venue at Riyadh Front.
The 2027 edition targets more than 19,000 visitors and more than 500 exhibitors, taking advantage of a move to a new venue that offers larger spaces and wider opportunities for networking, deal-making and partnerships between companies operating in the Saudi market and international parties.
Automechanika Riyadh covers an integrated range of automotive aftermarket products and services across 10 main sections: parts and components, electrics and electronics, tires and batteries, diagnostics and repair, body and paint, oils, lubricants and fuels, car wash and care, accessories and customization, connectivity and autonomous driving, and digital solutions and services.
The experience goes beyond the trade show with a set of events, live demonstrations, hands-on experiences and knowledge exchange, including the "Paint Your Car", "Wrap It", "Find the Fault" and "Aftermarket Central" activities.
The Automechanika Academy forms the knowledge side of the event, bringing sector leaders and experts together in presentations and panel discussions on developments in the vehicle services market, new challenges and trends, and growth opportunities.
The new edition comes as the Kingdom's vehicle services market continues to grow. Data cited by the organizer projects the market to reach around USD 9.6 billion by 2032, at a compound annual growth rate of 5.2%.
Messe Frankfurt Saudi Arabia organizes the 2027 edition as part of the global Automechanika network dedicated to the automotive aftermarket.
Date update — 5 November 2026: The organiser moved the exhibition from 11–13 January to 21–23 June 2027, retaining Riyadh Front Exhibition & Conference Center as the venue. Official Messe Frankfurt announcement.
