The Buraidah Dates Carnival has entered its second harvest phase, often described as the “golden period” for both the quality and abundance of dates. During this time, the market is bustling with activity as vehicles arrive daily carrying more than 100 different varieties of dates. The season is marked by thriving trade, strong demand, plentiful supply, and premium quality—all while prices remain reasonable.
Aligned with Saudi Vision 2030, the carnival contributes to the growth of the agricultural sector and supports national food security. It also reinforces the region’s leadership in date production, showcasing Buraidah’s unique combination of agriculture, heritage, and tourism.

To enrich the visitor experience, the carnival offers cultural performances, traditional folklore shows, and a dedicated space for children, welcoming guests from across the Kingdom and abroad.
