The rise of entertainment in the kingdom under Vision 2030
In recent months, the entertainment industry has been making strides.
Improvements in the sector come as part of the Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, an initiative focused on diversifying the country's economy.
Under it, the kingdom established the General Authority for Entertainment in 2016.
Headed by Amr al-Madani, the authority aims to enhance the cultural and entertainment sector within the country.
In early January, Al Madani revealed that the ban on cinemas may soon be lifted, with theaters expected to open soon.
In addition to improvements in film, Saudi Arabia is also making leaps when it comes to music and online entertainment.
The country held its first concerts in 25 and 7 years, in Jeddah and Riyadh respectively - and hosted its first ever Comic Con.
In March, the kingdom also organized its first YouTube FanFest, an event that brought together YouTubers from around the world.
