AlUla Skies Festival

Returning in Apr 2026

From soaring above AlUla’s dramatic landscapes to gazing up at galaxies of stars, AlUla Skies Festival is a celebration of all things sky. By day, hot-air balloon flights offer breathtaking views from above; by night, the magic shifts to the ground with stargazing, moonlit concerts, and celestial experiences that awaken wonder. For Space Wanderers drawn to vast horizons and Inner Voyagers seeking quiet reflection, the festival offers a sense of perspective that’s as emotional as it is spectacular.
