Fourth Tayma Agricultural Festival Opens in Tabuk
The fourth Tayma Agricultural Festival has opened for a three-day run near the historic ancient wall in Tayma Governorate, Tabuk Region, in early September 2026. Organized by the Tabuk branch of the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture, the event aims to promote regional farming, provide direct marketing for local produce, and support agri-tourism in the governorate.
More than 18 local farmers, beekeepers, and cottage-industry producers are taking part, showcasing dates, fruits, vegetables, honey, and processed agricultural products across open exhibition pavilions set up for display and direct sale. The festival is held at the Archaeological Wall Park, the primary venue for this edition.
Beyond the marketplace, the programme features awareness sessions on modern agricultural practices, along with sections dedicated to sustainable farming and rural development. The heritage-linked location beside the ancient wall adds a family-oriented visitor dimension, with educational activities about local crops and farming techniques.
Government and local entities are participating alongside farmers and beekeepers to strengthen marketing efforts and support sustainability initiatives. Official agricultural and environmental services for farmers and events are accessed through the ministry's unified electronic services portal "Naama" and its channels listed on the national government services portal.
This edition marks an evolution from the previous Agricultural Products Festival, moving to a focused three-day format with around 18 farmers, beekeepers, and cottage producers while keeping its emphasis on sustainability and modern farming methods. No specific entry fees, participation costs, or daily operating hours have been announced for the 2026 edition.
