Today, the Saudi Feast Food Festival takes place at Abadi Aljohar Arena, Jeddah. Visitors will have the chance to explore different zones, which offer different experiences. Plus, there will be food tasting experiences, which gives you the rare opportunity to speak with Saudi Arabian chefs. 

The zones will get your stomach rumbling. The Competition Zone hosts cooking competitions, and you can join or watch budding chefs in action. The Culinary Arts Heritage Zone is the place to learn about the history of the country’s cuisine. The Retail Zone is the perfect place to pick up gifts, souvenirs, and items for your kitchen and next dinner party. The Theatre Zone is an Insta-friendly spot where you can watch cooking demonstrations. The Workshops Area gives visitors the chance to learn skills from professional chefs. 

Last year’s edition of the Saudi Feast Food Festival was held in Riyadh and was used as a platform to launch the very first FACT Dining Awards in Riyadh.

Tickets to the festival are available now. General admission tickets start at SAR 35, and VIP tickets start at SAR 150.
