Inspired by the historic souks of Diriyah, the 6,400-square-metre venue glowed with arches, lanterns, spices, and music. But here, the market became a stage: walls shifted, ceilings opened to acrobats, and entire corridors dissolved into performance.

Chefs from across Saudi Arabia and the Arab world (Egypt, Syria, Palestine) stood side by side with international masters of Italian, Japanese, Turkish, and Belgian cuisines. Fifteen food stalls became as much theatre as gastronomy, offering scents and tastes that carried visitors across continents.

And around every corner, a new surprise: performers tumbling down walls, fire and song rising into the night, dancers weaving between tables, a souk alive with dreamlike motion.

Souk Wonders broke the boundaries of what a show can be. It was not theatre, not market, not festival — but all of them at once. A living labyrinth where food, culture, technology, and human artistry converged.

It honored the roots of Saudi Arabia through dance, song, and cuisine — while embracing the world through international artistry. It gave every visitor, whether in the heart of the crowd or gazing from a VIP tower, an experience that felt uniquely theirs.

With Souk Wonders, Dragone proved once again that entertainment is not only about spectacle, but about creating worlds. Worlds where the familiar becomes fantastic, and the souk — the timeless heart of Arab culture — becomes the stage for tomorrow.
