About the fair

What Marble & Stone World at Big 5 Global is

Big 5 Global is the largest construction and urban development event in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia. Marble & Stone World is its dedicated natural stone show, covering stone design, machinery and applications.

It is where Gulf contractors, developers and fit-out firms source stone for large projects, and where Italian, Turkish, Indian and Chinese exporters meet them. A visit also covers the wider Big 5 halls for concrete, facades, HVAC and interiors.
