Terhal Set To Return To Diriyah

Diriyah’s landmark show returns with more spectacle, soul, and Saudi storytelling

Under the open skies of Diriyah, where mudbrick walls hold centuries of history, the stage is set once again for one of Saudi Arabia’s most stirring live performances. Terhal, the theatrical spectacle that captivated audiences last season, is making its highly anticipated return, promising a bold new chapter in immersive storytelling rooted in Saudi identity.

Produced by Balich Wonder Studio in collaboration with Diriyah Company, Terhal blends cutting-edge technology with traditional artistry to present a narrative of transformation, resilience, and pride. Part theatrical show, part cultural homage, it brings together music, dance, light, and performance in a way that reimagines the Kingdom’s heritage for a new generation.

This year’s production introduces fresh scenes, reimagined choreography, and an even more elaborate set, drawing from the themes of unity, movement, and collective ambition. With At-Turaif as its backdrop, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the cradle of Saudi’s founding story, Terhal is more than a show, it is a celebration of national spirit.

From nomadic rhythms to modern dreams, Terhal invites viewers on a journey through time and across landscapes. It reflects the Kingdom’s evolution while honoring the voices and traditions that shaped its identity. Each moment on stage is designed to resonate emotionally, visually, and sonically, creating a sensory experience that lingers long after the final bow.

As Saudi Arabia continues to invest in cultural production and world-class entertainment, Terhal stands out as a benchmark for homegrown creativity on a global scale. It reflects not only the Kingdom’s commitment to preserving its heritage, but also its ability to transform it into something dynamic, relevant, and exportable.

Terhal is not just a performance, it is a movement. It represents the creative pulse of a country that is rediscovering itself through art, history, and innovation. Whether you are a returning guest or a first-time attendee, this is a show that demands your attention.

The new season of Terhal runs in Diriyah this summer. Tickets are available now, but trust us, they will not last long.
