Saudi Arabia Festivals

Saudi Arabia hosts exciting festivals year-round, and the Eastern Province Summer Festival in Al Khobar is no exception. The event attracts people from all over Saudi Arabia, and particularly brings visitors from neighbouring Riyadh, who come into the city to enjoy all the different aspects of each of the festivals.

Each year, the Eastern Province Summer Festival promotes trade and tourism in Saudi Arabia, and hosts a diverse mix of smaller festivals and events for people of all ages to enjoy. Beautiful firework displays end memorably each night of these festivals throughout July in the Eastern Province in Saudi Arabia.

Festivals are also held across Saudi Arabia for Eid al Fitr and Eid al-Adha, two major Islamic festivals.
