Event Overview

The 2023 Saudi Cup brought the world's richest horse race back to King Abdulaziz Racetrack in Riyadh, with a card built around the $20 million feature race and a night of supporting events that drew top jockeys, owners, and trainers from across the international racing calendar. Alongside the racing, the evening's programme included the official gate draw, trophy presentations, and a ceremony designed to match the scale of a global sporting fixture now firmly on Saudi Arabia's calendar.

Our Role & Delivery

Our team supported Blink Experience on the staging and lighting for the event, from the truss-mounted rig framing the main stage to the presentation setup used for the gate draw and trophy moments. The goal was to give the ceremony the same production polish as the racing itself — clean sightlines for the broadcast cameras, confident lighting for the trophy reveal, and a stage built to hold its own on a night watched well beyond the racetrack.
