RIYADH SEASONS 2021

A world-record-breaking attraction by Desert Snow

In 2021, Desert Snow designed and delivered the Avalanche Tubing Slide for Riyadh Season, a breathtaking and record-breaking attraction that captivated visitors and made global headlines.

The installation achieved two Guinness World Records — for the tallest artificial slide structure and the most lanes on a slide — becoming one of the signature highlights of the entire festival.

Combining engineering innovation, creative spectacle, and operational precision, Desert Snow once again demonstrated its capability to deliver experiences that redefine what’s possible in live entertainment.
