Legacy Entertainment, which has designed several of the world’s largest theme parks, resorts, and aquariums, will make its Saudi Arabian debut at the Saudi Entertainment and Amusement (SEA) Expo in Riyadh between 7-9 May 2024. As well as introducing its new Expo Booth, which has been custom-designed specifically for the SEA event, Taylor Jeffs, Legacy’s President and Chief Creative Officer, will be delivering a keynote speech.
Eric Carnagey, Legacy’s Managing Director, commented: “Saudi Arabia is the most exciting market in the world right now. With a combination of vision, talent, and access to capital, there is an opportunity there to transform the way the entire world experiences and consumes the next generation of location-based entertainment.”
“Saudi Arabia is the most exciting market in the world right now”
Although this is Legacy’s first public appearance in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the company has been engaged in the region for several years and currently has four projects throughout the Middle East that are at varying phases of design and construction.
Legacy is recognized for its attraction-design projects throughout Asia. Nevertheless, Legacy executives say they’ve been waiting for the proper chance to enter the Saudi market, with Carnagey explaining: “A key part of Legacy’s success over the years has been exercising great discretion in selecting the exact right projects with the exact right partners. We have waited a long time for just the right opportunities in Saudi Arabia to present themselves, and we are confident that within the very near future, the Legacy brand will be successfully launched in this vital region with the strongest suite of new partners and projects imaginable!”
