AlUla is set to host the fifth edition of the AlUla Wellness Festival, running from October 24 to November 1. The event will offer an exciting lineup of wellness, sports, and cultural activities across the region’s stunning natural landscapes, reinforcing AlUla’s position as a world-class cultural and tourism destination.

Festival programs will unfold daily at AlUla’s most iconic sites, including Elephant Rock, Hegra, the Old Town Amphitheatre, Harrat Viewpoint, Heart of the Oasis, and Maraya. A dedicated cycling camp later in October will take participants on guided rides through AlUla’s rugged terrain, complemented by specialized workshops on cycling techniques and endurance training.

Endurance sports will take center stage with the AlUla Half Marathon on October 25, offering five race categories designed for all ages and fitness levels. Meanwhile, the Mughayra Heritage Sports Village will host the AlUla 24-Hour Endurance Race from October 31 to November 1, where individuals and teams will push their limits to complete as many laps as possible within a full day.

On November 1, Ashar Valley will set the stage for a triathlon event, while the AlUla Duathlon will commence earlier at Winter Park, highlighting the region’s growing reputation as a destination for sports, wellness, and adventure.

Visitors can round off their experience with a variety of cultural and heritage-inspired events, including exclusive culinary sessions in historic settings such as Jabal Ikmah—an open-air museum showcasing ancient inscriptions that tell the stories of past civilizations.
