When did Boulevard World open? The zone welcomed its first visitors of the year on Friday, 30 October 2026, its fifth straight year since 2022, as part of the seventh edition of Riyadh Season, which began on 21 October. Tickets are sold through Webook, and the terms allow resale on that platform only.

What does a ticket cost? The official booking page lists entry from SAR 30 per person, with access to all zones. Press reports put the weekend price at SAR 40, so the amount Webook shows for your chosen day is the one that counts. Special experiences inside are ticketed separately.

Who gets in free? Children under five, visitors aged 60 or over who show the Riyadh Season card in the Tawakkalna app, and people with disabilities who present their original disability card. Everyone else over five needs a ticket of their own.

What is inside? Areas inspired by 17 countries, among them Japan, Mexico, Egypt, Morocco, India, Spain, South Korea and France, plus zones drawn from Africa, Asia and the Levant, with markets, restaurants and live shows. Riyadh Season has singled out the Amazonia Awakens water ride, the Vuz Dome cinema with 360-degree projection, the BLVD Pier rides and the cable car. Boats and a water taxi run on the lake, and the Africa area lets visitors get close to animals.

What should you know before you go? Outside food and drink are not allowed, though restaurants and food trucks are on site. Pets and professional cameras stay at home. Leaving ends your ticket, because re-entry is not allowed, and refunds apply only if the organiser cancels or reschedules. Smoking is limited to designated areas.
