It was not all that long ago that the world would have laughed at the prospect of a Las Vegas-sized entertainment hub being built in the middle of the Saudi Arabian landscape. However, as we stand here in 2018 it now appears that is exactly what is about to happen.
An innovative entertainment complex is planned to open in the capital city of Riyadh in 2030.
Breaking with Saudi Convention
Saudi Arabia is a country that boasts a largely Sunni Islam community. The mere idea of a multi-billion dollar entertainment district is one that borders on blasphemy. Yet that is the very reality that the country will be faced with come 2022 when the first stage of the complex is completed. Work is set to begin early next year.
The entertainment city is part of a wider strategic plan dubbed Vision 2030 and is planned to cover 334 square miles of land.
That will make it roughly one fifth the size of the city of Riyadh itself and approximately the same size as the gambling destination of Las Vegas.
It will include a range of attractions like entertainment and sporting amenities, plus a Six Flags Park and safari park are also set to be added to the sit
It was commissioned by Deputy Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman back in 2016. The motivation behind the project is to help Saudi Arabia’s economy become less reliant on the fossil fuel of oil.
