Event production in Saudi Arabia used to be incredibly expensive because most high-end equipment had to be imported. Today, thanks to the boom of Vision 2030, world-class AV equipment is widely available locally, making production budgets much more manageable.
If you are planning an event in 2026, here is a transparent breakdown of what you can expect to pay.
1. AV Package Pricing
Here is a quick look at standard audio-visual packages:
Basic Corporate (Up to 100 guests): Starting at SAR 18,000 (Basic PA system + Projector)
Mid-Corporate (Up to 300 guests): Starting at SAR 35,000 (Line Array speakers + Screen)
Full Corporate (Up to 500 guests): Starting at SAR 65,000 (Full PA + LED Wall)
Concert-Grade (500–5,000+ guests): SAR 120,000+ (High-end L-Acoustics / d&b systems)
Live Streaming & Broadcast Setup: Starting at SAR 85,000
2. Stage and Set Design
A standard corporate stage (8m × 5m) with steps and a lectern will cost between SAR 22,000 and SAR 35,000. If you are hosting a high-end gala that requires custom scenic elements, branded panels, and built-in LEDs, expect to pay between SAR 75,000 and SAR 180,000. Massive concert stages start at around SAR 250,000.
3. LED Walls and Projection
LED walls are the standard for modern events. Renting a high-quality (Fine Pitch) LED wall costs about SAR 1,800 to SAR 2,800 per square meter, per day (this includes the crew and cabling). A standard 8m × 4m LED wall will run you about SAR 60,000 to SAR 90,000 per day.
4. Intelligent Lighting
A basic corporate lighting wash costs around SAR 15,000 to SAR 25,000. If you want a full moving head light show with a dedicated programmer for a gala, you are looking at SAR 65,000 to SAR 120,000.
Expert Tip
When planning a corporate gala, allocate at least 15% of your total budget strictly to AV and lighting. Great lighting can make even a basic venue look like a million dollars.
What Else Affects the Cost?
Location matters. If your event is outside Riyadh or Jeddah, you have to pay for freight and crew accommodation. For example, hosting an event in AlUla will typically add 40% to 60% to your production costs because of remote logistics.
