Get ready to skate to the music. Swizz Beatz has been announced to perform at the AlUla On Wheels closing weekend.
The Swizz Weekend is happening from Thursday October 20 to Saturday October 22, and promises a strong lineup as well as surprised guests. Swizz Beatz will be bringing the beatz during a DJ set on Thursday October 20 and Friday October 21 from 11pm both nights.
Prior to the Swizz Beatz AlUla On Wheels performance, The Swizz Weekend will kick off on Thursday with a Pass the Kabsa live podcast and panel featuring conversations with Good Intentions, The Creatives of Saudi and MOYA musicians. The conversations will run from 7pm to 8.30pm. The talks will be followed by a MOYA listening party and Swizz Beatz LIVE AlUla On Wheels event.

In addition to live performances at the AlUla On Wheels closing weekend, attendees can expect arts and culture. Good Intentions has rounded up creatives from its GI Family for more experiences, including a mural by RexChouk, displaying an ode to Swizz’s camel team, Saudi Bronx and the Ruff Ryders.
Want in? The Swizz Weekend tickets are available now for SAR250 and need to be booked in advance.
AlUla on Wheels is the first-ever roller rink in the historic region of AlUla. The temporary roller rink is at one of Saudi’s oldest boys school in AlJadidah no less. The event skated into town earlier this month. It’s curated by Swizz Beatz and the international rapper’s global creative movement, Good Intentions, in collaboration with AlUla Moments. So, having a Swizz Beatz AlUla On Wheels performance seems like a perfect way to close the event.
