Riyadh Season 2 will open with a giant performance by Pitbull
Riyadh Season begins on October 20 and continues until March 2022…
With just a week to go, the launch of Riyadh Season 2021 is almost upon us.
Hundreds of performers and floats are set to participate in an opening parade and carnival to officially launch the season on October 20.
But here’s another big news. The Kingdom is gearing up to welcome back “Mr. Worldwide” as Pitbull will also kick off the festival with a live concert.
For the Miami rapper – who has penned hits such as “Don’t Stop the Party”, “Timber”, and “Give Me Everything” – his performance will be his third appearance in the Kingdom.
