EDM Concert in SAUDI ARABIA?! (You Won't Believe This is Saudi) American in Saudi Arabia Travel Vlog

If you're from the West like me, I bet this is NOT what you picture when you think of Saudi Arabia! The Kingdom is opening up in a big way - it's the reason I was able to go there as a tourist in the first place. Besides allowing tourists to visit, Saudi Arabia has also lifted the ban on concerts (and movie theatres, which you can see in my other videos). My friends in Jeddah surprised me with tickets to see Zedd and Bryan Adams at King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC), about 1.5 hours outside of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. This was a truly surreal experience for me and it completely shattered my preconceptions of Saudi Arabia. The energy at the concert was amazing!

Thank you for watching!
