Congratulations to @imaginexp_sa for winning Best Arts & Cultural Event for ‘Hegra After Dark’ at the Middle East Events Awards #MEES2025. I was proud to represent RCU at the awards yesterday, but success and recognition is due to the tremendous efforts of many from RCU and the Cultural Sites Management team - congratulations to ALL involved!
Conceptualising, creating and delivering site-specific experiences at #UNESCOWorldHeritage sites like #Hegra, present complex challenges and 'Hegra After Dark' is a large, multi-layered, challenging production - like no other experience I have worked on before!
Visitors embark on a magical night journey through the landscape in a horse-drawn carriage, where they are welcomed into the ‘theatre of life’ set amongst Hegra’s most spectacular tombs for an inspired reimagining of history, brimming with the sights, sounds, smells and tastes echoing the era of the Nabataean civilisation. It is a multi-dimensional history-inspired experience under the stars, narrating the unique story of AlUla and its legacy.
‘Hegra After Dark’ has become the best selling ticketed experience within the #AlUlaMoments #AncientKingdomsFestival. This popularity demonstrates strong visitor interest and appeal for #immersiveexperiences that promote a sense of ambition, wisdom and active discovery of the history of north-west Saudi Arabia and the Nabataean civilisation in exciting, relevant and meaningful ways... setting new benchmarks for hashtag#heritageactivations hashtag#heritageexperiences and hashtag#heritageinterpretation.
Congratulations to everyone from RCU and Imagine Experience who was involved in bringing this spectacular experience to life!

As Expo 2020 opens the gates for one last time today, I’d like to thank some very special people, without their trust, belief, encouragement and opportunity I would never have started my epic journey at #expo2020 with #momentmakers. I came for 3 months and I stayed for 3 years …
Thank you to the leader of Moment Makers, our VP @lubnaharoun I am so grateful to have met a strong, brave, inspiring and creative leader like you - you had a vision from day one that something special was going to happen and thanks for bringing me on that ride with you!
We strategised, created, planned and delivered shows that really did “capture the world’s imagination” with the world’s biggest superstars… from Coldplay, Alicia Keys, Black Eyed Peas, Nancy Ajram, Ragheb Alama and Kadim Al Sahir - in just 6 shows we took Expo to the world and reached 70 million viewers!
Thanks to team * Moment Makers * for bringing #Infinitenights to life. A dream needs a #dreemteam! @noussis , Benoit Turibe, @donziii25@everydaychristine@rresh17@katybarjawi@shellalannah myriamhaddad7 💪🙏❤️
A huge #thankstoexpo for giving me - and people from around the world - such an incredible opportunity to be part of something so unique and special... at a tough time when we had to relearn what it meant to ‘bring the world together’ AND WE DID IT: 22 million visitors and still counting today …
“And these extraordinary minutes, hours and days - these moments make life meaningful. And they were ours to create”.

Few memories from @aliciakeys EPIC live show at @expo2020 in the iconic Al Wasl Dome….

When I wake up, a little bit of me wonders every day, will I ever get back to #Glastonbury ? Will 80,000 people ever sing a harmony like this together again in a field? #missinglivemusic #glastonbury2019 @lubz_dubai #arewehumanorarewedancer #thekillers @annabelletooby
“A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men!” (W.Wonka) The boys had a marvellous day celebrating #worldbookday2021 #worldbookday at #theaquilaschooldubai ... Harrison got top marks for his reading challenge to add a highlight to the day. The boys then enjoyed an online story with their teacher - with a cheeky hot chocolate bomb treat ⭐️🌈📘📗📕🤓
