Qiddiya City is celebrating Saudi National Day for the first time since opening to the public, with a programme of entertainment, cultural and interactive experiences at Six Flags Qiddiya City and Aquarabia.

Activities at the two destinations range from interactive experiences to live shows. The highlight came yesterday at 10:30 p.m., when light shows and roaming entertainment troupes coincided with Qiddiya's slopes being lit up in green, combining light, movement and sound.

Celebrations at Aquarabia run from September 23 to 26, while Six Flags is staging stand-up comedy shows on September 25 and 26.
