The Saudi Pavilion at Expo Osaka 2025 is preparing to deliver a unique cultural experience that highlights the heritage of falconry, an integral part of Saudi identity and a key element of the region’s intangible cultural legacy.
Visitors to the pavilion will be introduced to the art of falconry in detail, from traditional training and care methods to its historical role in Saudi society, where falcons have long been associated with desert life and traditional hunting practices.
The program also positions falcons as symbols of national pride, embodying values such as courage, patience, and precision.
Through interactive displays, workshops, and modern multimedia presentations, guests will explore the world of falcons and learn about ongoing efforts to preserve this heritage, including conservation programs for endangered species and specialized falcon breeding centers.
The pavilion will also provide opportunities for direct engagement with falconry experts and practitioners, enriching the visitor experience with both knowledge and cultural depth.
By spotlighting falconry, the Kingdom reaffirms its commitment to sharing its authentic cultural traditions with the global community, in line with Vision 2030, which seeks to strengthen Saudi Arabia’s cultural presence and showcase its heritage at international platforms.
