Gaming & esports in Riyadh

Riyadh now hosts a dense calendar of esports competitions, gaming conferences, publisher showcases and fan festivals. Every one of them needs stages, screens, player positions, seating and sponsor space built to broadcast standard.

A city-scale gaming calendar

Esports production is unusual: the audience in the room and the audience on stream both have to be served. Sightlines, lighting colour, sound isolation, cable management and camera positions all have to be resolved before a single desk is placed.

Around the competition sit the commercial layers — sponsor booths, gaming zones open to the public, simulator and VR experiences, hardware and publisher launches, creator spaces and merchandise.

We build and operate these environments for brands, sponsors, agencies and organisers. We are not affiliated with any tournament organiser, federation or publisher.

Gaming & esports — common questions

Do you build broadcast-standard stages?

Yes. Stage, lighting and cable design account for camera positions, colour temperature and on-air sightlines.

Can you supply gaming hardware?

We supply and operate pods, simulator rigs, screens and peripherals, and integrate hardware supplied by the sponsor.

Do you handle live streaming?

We provide the infrastructure — power, cabling, screens, staging and technical crew — and work alongside the broadcast supplier.

Are you affiliated with any tournament organiser?

No. We work as an independent production and activation company for brands, sponsors, agencies and organisers.
