The Arabian Warrior, the leading obstacle course race series in the Middle East, is gearing up to host its very first event in AlUla.

Set amidst one of Saudi Arabia's most iconic historic landmarks, the event is expected to draw over 1,500 participants, including renowned obstacle course racing (OCR) athletes from around the globe.

Key Event Features Include:

  • Two Days of Exciting Races: The lineup includes elite 10-km and 20-km races for men and women, two ultra-endurance team races in a 50-km format, a dynamic 5-km team race, and open categories for 5-km, 10-km, and 20-km distances.

  • KSA Schools Championships: Designed to encourage youth participation, the championships feature races for under-13 teams and competitions for teams aged 13 and above.

  • Immersive Camping Experience: Participants can enjoy three nights of camping under the stars, with options for glamping and traditional camping. Tailored travel packages provided by Discover Saudi and Nirvana Europe enable racers to explore AlUla beyond the event.

Since its launch in 2024, the Arabian Warrior series has experienced remarkable growth. After hosting successful events in Jeddah in December, Riyadh in January 2025, and Half Moon Beach in Dammam on February 15, 2025, the AlUla event is set to bring the series to an even higher level.

With support from AlUla Moments and the Saudi Sports for All Federation, Arabian Warrior strives to foster fitness and community engagement throughout Saudi Arabia.
