Makkah

Makkah, primarily known as a global religious pilgrimage destination, is actively developing its MICE capabilities, particularly for events that can be combined with the Umrah pilgrimage. The city offers modern convention and exhibition facilities, often integrated within its numerous new hotels, such as the Hilton Makkah Convention Hotel, which features the city's largest pillar-less ballroom. International connectivity is facilitated through King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) in Jeddah, a major hub serving Makkah. The city boasts a substantial hotel capacity, including many 4- and 5-star properties, often providing views of the Grand Mosque and other key Islamic attractions.
