The Big 5 Global 2025, taking place from November 24–27 at the Dubai World Trade Centre, is recognized as the largest and most influential event for the construction and urban development industry across the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia (MEASA). Now in its 46th edition, the exhibition continues to serve as a vital hub for innovation, collaboration, and business opportunities, uniting professionals and decision-makers from around the world.
This year’s event is expected to host over 2,800 exhibitors from more than 165 countries, drawing an estimated 80,000 visitors representing every stage of the construction lifecycle, from materials and machinery to digital technologies and sustainable solutions. More than 60,000 products and innovations will be on display, making it a comprehensive platform for discovering new technologies and forming global partnerships.
The Big 5 Global is not just an exhibition, it’s an ecosystem. Alongside the main show, several co-located events will run simultaneously, including Windows, Doors & Facades Event, HVACR Expo, Marble & Stone World, Totally Concrete, Urban Design & Landscape Expo, and Heavy Machinery. These specialized segments allow attendees to explore focused sectors, while the event’s Global Impact Conference and technical workshops address the industry’s most pressing topics, digital transformation, sustainable construction, resilient supply chains, and workforce development.
In this context, glass and façade technologies play a pivotal role. Modern architecture increasingly relies on advanced glazing systems to achieve energy efficiency, daylight optimization, and aesthetic appeal. Glass not only define the visual identity of contemporary buildings but also contribute to thermal insulation, solar control, and structural safety, key priorities in sustainable construction. 
With the MEASA region boasting over $7 trillion worth of construction projects in development, Big 5 Global provides an unparalleled opportunity for companies, architects, and developers to engage with the latest materials and systems shaping the future of the built environment.
