Jeddah Season - Local Festival

Saudi Arabia is considered to be one of the hottest country during the summer but that did not stop the people of Jeddah to go out in numbers and enjoy the festive season organized by the government. It was never like this before but things have changed and how. There is breath fresh air this summer and people are loving it here. There are many events organized here which I have actually mentioned in one of my previous post and this weekend I have attended one of the events held at Obhur.

There were carnivals, laser shows, fountain shows, food trucks etc.

I tried to grab the moments and compiled a couple of videos. Have a look at at and get entertained.

And do let me know if you all are interested in seeing other events going on here. I ll try to post them here.

Thank You.

That’s so magical @shareit , thank you for sharing your post with us. The laser show with music fountains looks so impressive, especially the walking camel. Is this an annual event? How long does it last?

Hello @VasT

Thanks for the appreciation and kind words.

The festival season is called Jeddah Season and it started on 8th June, 2019 and will last till 18th July, 2019.

And tell you what, Nicky Minaj is gonna come here and perform on the final day of the event.

It’s the first time this kind of festival season happening in Saudi Arabia, so not sure if its an annual event but I am really hoping they will return here again next year.

What do you celebrate @shareit ? Can you participate for free? By your reaction I can see that you’re a Minaj’s fan :).

Oh no I am not really a big fan of her but I am really surprised that she has been invited and yeah I am excited at the same time.

Celebrating nothing in particular, just the school vacations for kids I guess.

I love that, celebrating just to celebrate @shareit ! Enjoy the rest days of the festival and can’t wait to see more of your posts and Saudi Arabia.

Looks like a real spectacular @shareit . I’ve been to and seen a number of similar laser shows around the world and they are always major attractions.

@AdamGT oh yes, Laser show in itself are a major attraction and when is combined with the water fountain show then it goes to the next level and it surely did.

This is was a great experience and kudos to the guys who managed to pull this off.
