Saudi Arabia is preparing to celebrate its 95th National Day with six days of grand celebrations across 14 cities, featuring air and naval displays, fireworks, and cultural events that reflect the nation's heritage and identity. The commemorations honor the founding of the modern Saudi state by King Abdulaziz in 1932, which unified Najd and Hejaz into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

This year's celebrations under the theme "Our Pride in Our Nature" highlight Saudi qualities including generosity, ambition, courage, dignity, and hospitality. Major cities including Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam will host fireworks displays, drone shows, and aerial performances by the Saudi Hawks, along with traditional dances, cultural performances, and art exhibitions.

The events are organized in cooperation with the Royal Guard, Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Interior, National Guard, and Saudi Airlines, and will be broadcast live nationwide. Fireworks displays are scheduled for 9 PM on Tuesday in multiple cities, with seven-minute shows at prominent locations including Riyadh's Binban Historic Area and Jeddah's Art Promenade.
