In four days of its launch, Souq Okaz Festival received more than 150,000 visitors inside and outside the Kingdom, according to data from the Tourism Information and Research Center “MAS”.

In its tenth session, Souq Okaz Festival received more than 150,000 visitors inside and outside the Kingdom.

The Director of the General Authority for Tourism and National Heritage in Taif Governorate, Abdullah bin Obaidallah Al-Sowat, explained that the number of visitors is increasing day by day, amid expectations that the tenth session will witness a heavy attendance, especially since all previous editions of Souq Okaz recorded the largest percentage of attendance, making the expected turnout exceed the initial estimates.

He emphasized that this will reflect positively on Souq Okaz, which has become one of the most important tourist destinations and events that attract visitors from all regions of the Kingdom, Gulf and Arab countries and even Asian and European countries.
