    Diriyah is getting a giant new entertainment venue
    The Arena Diriyah will be a 20,000-seat venue where you’ll be able to catch some of the biggest sports, culture and entertainment events that come to Riyadh. Adjacent to the large arena will be a plaza – an outdoor venue where you’ll see live performances, pop-up shows and events. Surrounding the venue will be an urban park for visitors attending events and for the residents of Diriyah to enjoy. The Arena Diriyah will cover an immense 76,000 square metres and is currently one of the tallest new buildings planned for the town.

    The Diriyah Gate Development Authority to spend $10 billion on Diriyah project in 2024


    The Diriyah Gate Development Authority, the developer behind an ambitious plan to transform a historic Saudi town into a sprawling tourism destination, is set to splash out $10 billion on the project next year.

    The $63 billion project at Diriyah, a Unesco World Heritage site northwest of Riyadh that was the ancestral home of the ruling family, is set to feature dozens of hotels and thousands of homes. The Diriyah Gate Development Authority spent $7.5 billion last year building out infrastructure at the 14 square-kilometer project, CEO Jerry Inzerillo said in an interview.

    “It’s meant to be the largest pedestrian-friendly cultural heritage city,” Inzerillo said, adding that the first hotel is set to open this year. Funding so far has come from the government and foreign investors, he said. “I’ll spend $10 billion in 2024.”

    Renewed as Saudi Arabia’s cultural capital, the historic city of Diriyah will showcase Saudi Arabia’s 300+ years of authentic culture and history by delivering one-of-a-kind inspiring heritage experiences, educational and cultural opportunities, world-class residential living, and outstanding lifestyle offerings to include shopping, entertainment, and dining experiences.

    Located just 20 minutes northwest of Riyadh’s city center, Diriyah will be transformed into one of the world’s foremost lifestyle destinations for culture and heritage, hospitality, retail, and education, and will become one of the world’s great gathering places.

    At the heart of the development is the At-Turaif UNESCO World Heritage Site, an iconic mud-brick city, and the home of the First House of the Al Saud family and capital of the First Saudi State, preserved and restored for future generations.

    Combining traditional Najdi architectural typology and new urbanism, Diriyah will be a place that connects emotionally with visitors and residents, promotes, and celebrates the destination’s rich heritage and reveals the origins of modern Saudi Arabia and the spiritual values in which it is rooted.

    Under the mandate of Diriyah Gate Development Authority, and as one of the Public Investment Fund's projects, the project contributes to Vision 2030, by its target of 27 million local and international visitors by 2030. This supports the national tourism strategy which aims to host 100 million worldwide tourists in the Kingdom by 2030.
