Taif Season is bringing cinema back to the region, with a selection of the latest and most famous Arab and international films being shown in an innovative, open-air format, allowing viewers to benefit from the moderate weather in the “Arab Summer Resort.” 

A cinema has been opened in the city, with a capacity of 150 people and four daily shows, to accommodate growing demand. A collection of distinctive films, suitable for whole families, will be screened, with the list updated every six days and a standard ticket value. 

The first week will feature the Egyptian film “Saba Al Baramba,” starring Ramez Galal, Jamila Awad, Maha Abu Ouf, Bayoumi Fouad, and a host of other Egyptian film stars, as well as the US film “Men in Black International,” which features Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson as the leads. 

In the second week, “Toy Story 4,” the latest film in the cartoon series, and “Aladdin,” inspired by the Disney classic, will both feature. Visitors to Taif Season can look forward to more surprises in the coming days. For more information on films, dates and locations, people can look at the “Saudi Seasons” website, saudiseasons.sa, or look for the Taif Season account on social media platforms.
