A game-changing addition to Saudi Arabia’s event landscape has just been announced, and it’s expected to become the next big venue for top events in Saudi Arabia.
The Arena in Diriyah, located in the outskirts of Riyadh, is expected to have a seating capacity of 20,000 and will host an array of cultural events, concerts, sports events, and more. The $63.2 billion initiative is aimed at transforming Diriyah into a global epicenter of culture and innovation.
Crafted by the coveted British architectural firm, HKS Architects, The Arena seamlessly blends traditional Najdi architectural motifs with avant-garde design elements. Imagine your audience in an environment where every seat offers impeccable acoustics and panoramic views, ensuring that every moment of your event is nothing short of breathtaking.
Yet, The Arena is more than just a venue. With its own dedicated shopping and dining precincts, alongside an outdoor plaza with live performances and spontaneous exhibitions, your event experience extends far beyond the confines of the arena’s walls.
And let’s not overlook the architectural marvel that is The Arena. Designed to emerge from the landscape like majestic monoliths, it pays homage to local geological formations and ancient Najdi fortresses and palaces. With its captivating ‘digital waterfalls’, guests are irresistibly drawn to the boundless experiences awaiting them within.
So, for event managers in search of a venue that will impress their attendees and create an unforgettable experience, The Arena in Diriyah is set to be THE event venue of the future in Saudi Arabia.
