RIYADH: From live gaming racing experiences, musical performances, food trucks, and face painting, this year’s Formula E Allianz Fan Village pulled out all the stops to create memorable fun for visitors in Diriyah. “It’s truly wonderful.
I brought my kids and wife. It has been loads of fun,” Michael Brintley, a business strategist living in Riyadh, told Arab News. “We played the racing game in the Jahez tent, and my daughter got her face painted. “It’s a nice experience to have on top of the races going on.
We are still new to Saudi, so this was our first Diriyah Formula E, but it was great.” The fan village welcomed locals, expats, families, and friends to watch the races and enjoy downtime in between rounds on Friday and Saturday.
It boasted many tents and booths, giving interactive experiences and offering activities such as a miniature remote-controlled racing game around Diriyah hosted in the Saudia airline booth pop-up.
