Open-Air Theater concerts

We kick off the Open-Air Theater concerts with Egyptian artist Saad El Oud and his band on November 20 and 21, enjoying an outdoor medley of popular Egyptian songs made famous by legendary singers and film stars.

Saad El Oud began his performances among family and friends in intimate gatherings similar to Gulf-style musical sessions, which he called in Egyptian dialect “Saad El Oud’s Qa‘da” (Saad El Oud’s Gathering) — where he played the oud and sang along with the audience.

In 2018, these simple sessions evolved into large-scale concerts attended by hundreds and later thousands in Cairo and Alexandria. From there, the young artist and his band expanded to the Gulf region, performing in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and now Kuwait.
