Brogent Technologies has unveiled Flying Over Saudi, the Middle East’s largest flying theatre attraction, which officially opened on December 24, 2025, in Riyadh.
The project marks a significant milestone for the region’s theme park and immersive entertainment industry, introducing a new benchmark for large-scale, premium flying theatre experiences while reinforcing Riyadh’s position as a rapidly emerging destination for world-class attractions.
Flying Over Saudi combines advanced flight simulation technology with cinematic storytelling to deliver a premium, next generation flying experience.
Powered by Brogent’s flagship i-Ride flying theater system and the world’s first 8K projection system designed specifically for flying theatres, the attraction offers refined motion performance and heightened realism, setting a new standard for premium flying theater experiences.
It accommodates up to 90 guests per ride and the seven-minute original film takes guests on an aerial journey over Saudi Arabia’s most iconic natural and cultural landmarks, from majestic mountain ranges and vast deserts to stunning coastlines and the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hegra.
Guests are surrounded by a 26-metre domed screen, enhanced by synchronized motion seating and environmental effects including wind, mist, and scent, creating a fully immersive, multi-sensory flying experience.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with industry leader Brogent Technologies to launch the largest flying theatre in the Middle East,” said Emad Aleisa, chief executive of Takwenat.
“Beyond its 8K visuals, the experience uses distinctive cinematography and multi-sensory storytelling to create a deep emotional connection to Saudi Arabia’s landscapes. Visitors can feel as if they are walking alongside pilgrims in Mecca, experiencing the atmosphere through sound, scent, and subtle motion, creating a truly memorable and emotionally engaging journey.”
Chih-Hung Ouyang, chairman of Brogent Technologies, added: “The opening of Flying Over Saudi reflects the growing demand for premium, technology-driven immersive attractions across the Middle East.
“This project demonstrates how flying theater platforms can blend advanced ride systems with cinematic storytelling, offering a landmark experience that connects culture, tourism, and entertainment across the region.”
