SLS & SEA 2026 — The Ultimate Entertainment, Lighting & Sound Platform
The Saudi Light & Sound Expo (SLS) and the Saudi Entertainment & Amusement Expo (SEA) come together in one major event in Riyadh, creating an exceptional platform that unites lighting designers, professional audio solution providers, visual display technology companies, and leaders from the entertainment and amusement industries.
