Each edition of the Jameel Prize exhibition includes an international tour. The current Jameel Prize 3 Exhibition received more than 140,000 visits at the V&A in London in 2013 and 2014 before being shown in Russia, the UAE & Singapore as its final stop.

The Jameel Prize 3 Exhibition offers a compelling look at how Islamic traditions in art, craft and design inspire contemporary artists and designers around the world today. It features works by 10 artists and designers shortlisted for the Jameel Prize in 2013. This includes artists from Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, India, Pakistan, France and Morocco.
