Abu Dhabi 27 August 2026: ADNEC Group, a Modon company, is completing its final preparations for the 23rd edition of the Abu Dhabi International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition (ADIHEX), taking place from August 28 to September 6 at ADNEC Centre Abu Dhabi. The exhibition remains the largest of its kind in the Middle East and North Africa, dedicated to celebrating Emirati culture and heritage across falconry, hunting, equestrianism, fishing and outdoor sports.
Held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Ruler’s Representative in Al Dhafra Region and Chairman of the Emirates Falconers’ Club, ADIHEX 2026 is organised by ADNEC Group in strategic partnership with the Emirates Falconers’ Club.
This year’s edition is set to be the largest in the event’s 23-year history. Running for ten days from 10am to 10pm daily, ADIHEX 2026 will feature falconry auctions, equestrian showcases, saluki competitions and more. The exhibition features 15 diverse sectors with exhibitors and brands from 71 countries.
To accommodate the size of this edition, a temporary hall has been constructed in the Central Plaza area of the ADNEC Centre Abu Dhabi thanks to ADIHEX Official Venue Expansion Partner Al Fares International Tents, bringing the total size of the event to 107,000 square metres.
ADNEC Group’s diverse business clusters – spanning Venues, Events, F&B, Services, Tourism and Media – are once again working in close coordination to deliver ADIHEX 2026 to the highest international standard.
