Explore the magic of Hegra under the cover of darkness, either by light-up LED bicycles or horse-drawn carriages. Discover the rich history and culture of Saudi Arabia's first UNESCO World Heritage Site, and see a different side of the largest Nabataean city south of Petra.
An immersive show in the historic landscape of Alula
An immersion into the world of the ancient Nabataeans – this is ‘Hegra After Dark‘, an incredible sensorial experience where a horse-drawn carriage takes you on a journey through time within the atmospheric ‘Secret Garden of AlKhorimat’, and the vibrant marketplace of civilisation, the ’Theatre of Life’.
These immersive shows represent a new chapter for Balich Wonder Studio in bringing historic landscapes to life in AlUla’s living museum.
Saudi is well known for its hospitality, which they are excited to share. From the moment you step into the Visitor Center, you'll be welcomed with an array of drinks and treats.

What to expect
We ride in chariots into an amber sunset of the stunningly beautiful AlUla in Saudi Arabia. The clouds of dust raised by the horses blur the silhouetted sandstone cliffs. As complete darkness envelops, the iconic Hegra tomb comes into view, surreal and glowing in the radiance of a myriad lamps. Standing alone, proud and regal, the magnificent Qasir al-Farid tomb stands for all that Hegra was: a true representative of the Nabataean Kingdom that left invaluable impressions on the annals of history, more than two thousand years ago. Hegra is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for its spectacular monumental tombs. During the “Hegra After Dark” show, we are taken on a journey of captivating flavours and fragrances, fascinating storytelling and illuminated spectacles. What we see during the day comes alive after dusk.
It’s an exhilarating narrative journey where you are close to the actors and in the heart of the plot.
