Saudi Entertainment Ventures (SEVEN), a wholly owned subsidiary of Qiddiya Investment Company (QIC), has announced the opening of SEVEN Tabuk, its entertainment destination in the city of Tabuk, confirming its commitment to offering accessible, quality leisure experiences to all segments of the Kingdom’s population. The opening marks an important step in improving quality of life and supporting regional development, in line with Saudi Vision 2030.

SEVEN’s president, Abdullah Al Dawood, said that Tabuk continues the company’s trajectory as it takes shape on the ground.

An indoor site designed for everyday life

Located in the city centre, SEVEN Tabuk is a fully covered, air-conditioned destination designed for everyday entertainment, making it easier for residents and visitors alike to access a wide range of experiences without needing to travel far. The site caters to both planned family outings and spontaneous visits, with opening hours set from 4pm to 1am at weekends and 4pm to midnight on weekdays. Scene Cinemas operates daily from 4pm to 3.30am.

An offering combining international and local concepts

The destination offers a selection of international and local experiences. Highlights include Discovery Adventures, which features immersive environments inspired by real-world exploration, and Hot Wheels E-Karting, an interactive, high-energy karting experience inspired by the global brand. These attractions are complemented by SEVEN’s in-house concepts — Kawaken, Kawaken Junior, GolFi, Cyber Bowling and Scene Cinemas — forming a diverse, integrated entertainment offering aimed at a broad audience.

A driver of development for the north of the Kingdom

SEVEN Tabuk also contributes to the city’s wider development, supporting local employment and strengthening partnerships with businesses in the region, while reinforcing Tabuk’s position as an emerging leisure destination in the north of the Kingdom. The opening forms part of a broader push to expand Saudi Arabia’s entertainment offering, following the Six Flags Qiddiya City park, which opened in late 2025 at Qiddiya, another project backed by SEVEN’s parent company.
