21 – 23 November 2023, Hilton Riyadh Hotel & Residences, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

The 25th edition of the Arab International Aluminium Conference (ARABAL), the Middle East’s premier trade event for the aluminium industry, is coming to Riyadh this November.

The event will be hosted by Ma’aden (Saudi Arabian Mining Company), the largest multi-commodity mining and metals company in the Middle East, which is spearheading growth in the Kingdom’s aluminium and metals production.

This year, under the theme “Aluminium: The Future - from Mine to Space”,  the event will explore the future of the global aluminium sector, with the aim of driving innovation and collaboration in the industry. Conversations will cover key sector trends such as supply chain security, technology adoption and decarbonization initiatives, shaping the agenda for regional and global aluminium markets in 2024.

For 40 years, ARABAL has been the leading event for industry professionals, combining a strategic business conference with an international exhibition. It is the only event in the calendar attended by the primary smelters in the region.

With steady growth in the aluminium sector in the Middle East, the region will play a significant role in meeting growing global demand and supporting the energy transition. The ARABAL Conference draws a global audience and stands out as a unique forum for networking, conducting business and discussing the industry’s most pressing issues.
