Riyadh Season 2025 kicks off with a global “Try Not To React” challenge

Riyadh Season Begins

Riyadh Season is heating up again. The General Entertainment Authority’s chairman Turki Al-Alshikh has dropped a new global promo titled “Try Not To React” featuring KSI and IShowSpeed in a straight-face challenge filmed across flagship Season locations such as Boulevard World and the Joy Awards setup. The short also teases a brand-new MrBeast area arriving this season.

“KSI and Speed tried… now it’s your turn! Riyadh Season: Try not to enjoy it!” — campaign caption posted with the video.

Why this promo matters

  • Star power + new zones. The spot confirms global creators on camera and nods to a dedicated MrBeast-themed area with challenge-style experiences — a first for the Season.
  • Signature locations. Scenes highlight Boulevard World and the Joy Awards environment, signaling where crowds can expect headline activations.
  • Momentum from last season. Riyadh Season 2024 crossed 10–18+ million visitors according to official and trade reports, setting a high bar for 2025.
