Saudi falcon auction about to take flight

The fourth Saudi Falcons Club auction will begins on Oct. 1 and continue until Nov. 15 at the club’s headquarters in Malham, north of Riyadh.

The event aims to promote the Kingdom’s falconry heritage and support related cultural, civilizational and economic activities, organizers said, while offering opportunities to invest in a field that helps support the development of the national economy.

Through the auction, the club supports investment in falconry in Saudi Arabia and the development of the sector, including regulations governing the buying and selling of birds.

During the club’s first edition, in 2020, 102 falcons were sold over the course of 20 days and total value of sales exceeded SR10 million ($2.7 million). At the second auction, 95 falcons were sold for a total of SR8.3 million, and during the third, 81 birds sold for more than SR7 million.
