Riyadh Season (Arabic: موسم الرياض, romanized: mawsim ar-Riyāḍ) is a series of entertainment, cultural, and sporting events held in the Saudi Arabian capital of Riyadh. The event was introduced in 2019 by the General Entertainment Authority as part of the larger Saudi Seasons initiative in support of Saudi Vision 2030.
Riyadh Season is typically scheduled from October through March, falling between the early-winter and early-spring, with seasonal events and experiences dispersed into "zones" such as the Boulevard City, Boulevard World, Roshn Front, Al Malazz, and National Museum Park districts, and major events such as concerts, music festivals, and sporting events (particularly boxing and mixed martial arts events) promoted under the banner held at venues such as Mohammed Abdo Arena and Kingdom Arena.
