Al-Qadsiah National Day Carnival Draws 25,000+

Al-Qadsiah Club's Saudi National Day carnival, held under the theme “An Everlasting Legacy,” drew 25,631 visitors during its two-day run at the club's headquarters in Al-Khobar, Eastern Province, on September 23–24, 2026.

The event ran daily from 4:00 p.m. until midnight, offering a packed program of heritage displays, folk performances, competitions, traditional hospitality, and themed cultural zones. Families also enjoyed a range of interactive activities and dedicated family experiences across the venue.

Admission started from SAR 10, with free entry for children under seven. Children aged seven and above required a valid ticket, and bookings were handled through the event's online listing.

Why it matters

The strong turnout reflects growing community appetite for accessible, family-friendly celebrations that combine national pride with cultural experiences. By keeping ticket prices low and offering free entry for younger children, the carnival made the National Day festivities within reach of a wide audience across the Eastern Province.

The two-day carnival concluded on September 24, 2026, marking another well-attended addition to the region's National Day celebrations.
