In recent years, the Kingdom has hosted major global tournaments, including five editions of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit and the Dakar Rally — one of the world’s toughest and most renowned rally races — which has been held entirely in Saudi Arabia since 2020.
It also staged the Spanish and Italian Super Cups; key finals in Asian football, combat sports, and mixed martial arts events; and the World Heavyweight Boxing Championship, marking the first heavyweight title fight of its kind since 1999.

This global sporting presence coincides with the Kingdom’s 95th National Day celebrations, affirming that sports have become both a reflection of national progress and a symbol of determination and identity.
Just as Saudi Arabia raises its flag in the fields of development and advancement, it also raises it in the arenas of athletic competition, offering the world a complete image of a nation shaping the present with confidence and embracing the future with boundless ambition and leadership.
