AtkinsRéalis in collaboration with Qiddiya Investment Company has unveiled Six Flags Qiddiya City, the inaugural Six Flags destination in Saudi Arabia and the first Six Flags Park constructed entirely outside North America.
The project also introduces the world’s first Six Flags theme park, marking the first of 70 major assets, and signifies a significant addition to the Kingdom’s expanding leisure and tourism landscape, representing a pivotal milestone in Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 program, which aims to develop large-scale, internationally competitive entertainment destinations, said a statement.
Situated southwest of Riyadh, Six Flags Qiddiya City spans an expansive area of over 320,000sqm and comprises 10 zones across 6 immersive themed lands, which feature 28 attractions, 35 diverse food, beverage, and retail outlets, and offer a more immersive, story-driven experience for visitors.
AtkinsRéalis is partnering with Qiddiya Investment Company from the initial concept phase through to its delivery. The firm’s comprehensive design and engineering services encompass architecture, structures, infrastructure, public realm design, and ride integration. AtkinsRéalis’s in-house creative teams collaborated closely with engineering specialists to develop the park’s design, ensuring innovative concepts and practical engineering solutions, the statement said.
Matthew Tribe, Senior Vice President, Buildings and Places, AtkinsRéalis said, “Six Flags Qiddiya City reflects the scale and ambition of Saudi Arabia’s investment in entertainment and tourism. Delivering a project of this complexity required close collaboration with Qiddiya Investment Company and careful coordination across creative, design and engineering disciplines.”

We helped turn a bold vision into reality; 6 immersive lands offering a seamless, guest-focused journey. From cliff-edge foundations to culturally inspired spaces, we contributed to solving unprecedented challenges without compromising safety, storytelling, or quality. The result: a resilient, future-ready park that sets new benchmarks and reflects Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030.”
Six Flags Qiddiya City opens with five attractions, collectively setting world records across height, speed and scale. Signature experiences include Falcons Flight, the world’s tallest, fastest and longest roller coaster; Sirocco Tower, the tallest free-standing shot tower; Gyrospin, the tallest pendulum ride; Spitfire, the tallest inverting top-hat coaster; and Iron Rattler, the tallest tilt coaster.
