The exciting event runs from December to February
Saudi Arabia knows how to put on a season. The next season coming up in the Kingdom is Diriyah Season. Running from December to February, it will bring together an exciting range of events and experiences, which are designed to bring to life the heritage of Diriyah.
This year’s theme celebrates Al Awja and honours Diriyah’s origin story as the birthplace of the Kingdom. Diriyah Season combines arts, culture, live performances and experiences, which aim to showcase the site’s six hundred years of history. The event takes place across Diriyah’s parks, wadis, Bujairi Terrace and the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, At-Turaif.
The events include camping, culinary experiences, horseback riding, music, theatre and stargazing. Plus, it sees the return of Layali Diriyah, an immersive art exhibition, and the Diriyah E-Prix championship, which is organised by the Ministry of Sport.
His Excellency Ahmed Al-Khateeb, Minister of Tourism, Board Member and Secretary General of Diriyah Company, said: “As Saudi Arabia expands its tourism offering, we are unlocking the enormous potential that the sector offers. Central to this is authenticity in tourism: people travel for real stories and to meet real people. Diriyah Season will create connection and dialogue; supporting experiential tourism that is highly meaningful and memorable.”
Jerry Inzerillo, Group CEO of Diriyah Company, added: “Diriyah Season will unite the world in a celebration of culture and shared experiences. As we embark on this new annual season of events, we look forward to showcasing Diriyah, The City of Earth, and its values as one of the most culturally significant locations in the Kingdom.”
Happy Diriyah Season.
