Saudi Arabia’s Entertainment Sector Set To Substantially Develop Through 2022Through Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia has ambitions to
become one of the best places to live and visit in the world. Significant investments in entertainment and culture are helping to make that aspiration a reality.
Saudi Arabian society is changing rapidly. Wherever you look, there is evidence of
efforts to diversify the economy away from oil and improve the quality of life of the Kingdom’s citizens.
From the
Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, boxing matches, and concerts, to world-class tourist destinations, visitors and residents have been witnessing the emergence of a
new cultural center.
One of the driving forces behind the shift is the country’s
General Entertainment Authority (GEA), which was established by the government in 2016 to help drive
Vision 2030, an ambitious roadmap to reimagine Saudi Arabia’s society and economy.
