Riyadh, the heart of Saudi Arabia, is not only the nation’s political and economic center but also a dynamic hub for news gathering. From royal decrees to tech conferences, social reforms to international summits, reporters in Riyadh are constantly on the move—documenting a city that is rapidly evolving. Over the past decade, the Saudi capital has witnessed unprecedented changes. Vision 2030, the Kingdom’s strategic framework to diversify its economy, has transformed Riyadh into a magnet for international media attention. Reporters are now covering stories once unthinkable in the region—from the rise of entertainment events to women breaking into traditionally male-dominated industries.
