Riyadh Season is bringing us a ever-expanding list of entertainment, from music to cultural extravaganzas. The festival has just announced that the musical sensations Cheb Khaled and Elissa will be performing during the season, and tickets will go on sale on November 5.
The concert takes place on November 12, and the event will see the two superstars gracing the stage. The Algerian legend Cheb Khaled is no stranger to the capital, as he performed for the first time at Riyadh Season 2019. While the Lebanese-born Elissa will be performing for the third time in the capital, as her first show in the summer of 2018 and the second was this June.
Khaled began his career at the early age of 14 when he founded a band that went on to perform at nightclubs and weddings. From there, he went on to be one of the biggest names in music.
Elissa is one of the highest-selling female artists in the Middle East, and was the first Lebanese singer to be awarded the Best Selling Middle Eastern Artist at the World Music Awards in 2005. She has also previously appeared as a judge on the Arabic version of The Voice.
Riyadh Season has already welcomed big-name performers, as the festival opened with a show from the international superstar Pitbull. As new artists get announced regularly, keep an eye on Time Out Riyadh for the latest updates.
