Ajlaa Events' 2026–2027 season brings 54 show nights to Riyadh, from October 2026 to September 2027, with 15 artists and shows. Every show is on a Thursday or Friday night.
The season opens with stand-up comedy on Thursday 15 October 2026. Zahaymer follows from 22 October at Al Nubala Schools, with 12 shows across October and November.
November also brings Nourhan with the band at Ibn Khaldoun, Mazen Hamed and Nada at King Fahd Cultural Centre, a second stand-up night, and a local artist to be announced.
From December, the season settles into two concert weekends a month, with one artist on Thursday and another on Friday: Abdullah Al-Manea, Nay, Faisal Abdulkarim, Eyad Rimawi, Ahmed Alawi, Aseel Hameem and Ali Abdullah.
Shows pause from February to mid-March 2027 for the final stages of the Asian Cup in Riyadh and for Ramadan. They return straight after Eid al-Fitr, on 18 March, with Eman Shetty at Ibn Khaldoun. Spring adds Burhan and Farah.
June to September 2027 is a proposed summer programme with the season's best-loved names, ending with Abdullah Al-Manea on National Day, 23 September 2027.
The season uses four venues: King Fahd Cultural Centre, Riyadh Schools, Al Nubala Schools and Ibn Khaldoun.
