State-of-the-Art Film Production Hub Unveiled in Riyadh

The General Entertainment Authority in Saudi Arabia inaugurated the film and TV production hub, AlHisn Big Time Studios, as part of Riyadh Season, Saudi's seasonal series of entertainment, cultural and sporting events in the capital. Located west of the capital, the complex is one of the most expansive production hubs in the Middle East equipped with state-of-the-art filmmaking technologies.

The production facility includes specialised workshops for carpentry, metalwork and costume design, alongside cutting-edge production suites, VIP suites and high-tech editing rooms, fully integrating all branches of pre-production and post-production, catering to all levels of filmmaking.

With extensive and specialised infrastructure, AlHisn Big Time Studios offers comprehensive and creative centralised resources for film and television production. The entire site spans around 300,000 square metres, with seven studio buildings covering 10,500 square metres.

Visitors to the complex can enjoy a walk through cinematic history, as AlHisn Big Time Studios also house a museum with vintage cameras alongside the movies that have been shot with them.
