This year, the Kingdom celebrates its 95th National Day, marking the historic unification of the country by King Abdulaziz bin Abdulrahman Al Saud on September 23, 1932.
It is a day that symbolizes national unity, where the diverse regions of the Arabian Peninsula were brought together under one flag, paving the way for stability, progress, and a shared vision of growth.
Saudi National Day is not only a commemoration of history but also a moment to reflect on the nation’s remarkable achievements over the past nine decades and to look forward to an even brighter future shaped by Vision 2030.
This ambitious roadmap has propelled the Kingdom into a new era of modernization and diversification, with groundbreaking projects such as NEOM, The Red Sea Project, Qiddiya, and AlUla, as well as bold initiatives in renewable energy, technology, and tourism.
The National Day has evolved into a grand national celebration filled with pride and unity.
Saudi cities light up in green, cultural and artistic events are held across the nation, and spectacular military and aerial shows symbolize the strength, resilience, and unity of the Saudi people.
It is also an opportunity to instill national values in the younger generations and to highlight the principles of unity, devotion, and service upon which the Kingdom was founded.
Today, Saudi Arabia stands at the threshold of a new era of regional and global leadership. The Kingdom has become a major economic and investment hub, a leading cultural and tourism destination, and a committed partner in global sustainability and stability.
The 95th National Day is therefore not only a celebration of history but also a declaration of an unbounded vision for the future.
The Saudi Times wishes everyone celebrating in Saudi Arabia and around the world a happy 95th National Day!
