World Arabic Language Day at National Museum

Celebrate World Arabic Language Day 2025 at the National Museum in Riyadh with a three-day cultural programme running 18–20 December (World Arabic Language Day is marked annually on 18 December). Visitors and residents can enjoy an immersive experience blending heritage, arts, and the Arabic language through cultural and intellectual dialogues that explore its human and cultural dimensions—featuring a standout session on “the aesthetics of language in Saudi folk songs,” highlighting how language helps preserve heritage and connect traditional tools and crafts to the living culture of Saudi society. The programme also includes an interactive, conversational book-signing session where you can meet authors and discover the beauty of Arabic in their texts, before closing with a vibrant mix of workshops, hands-on activities, and artistic performances celebrating the richness and diversity of traditional crafts and arts.
