Saudi Cultural Centre to Open in Paris
The new centre will connect Saudi and French artists, institutions and cultural organisations through programmes, partnerships and exchange.
Saudi Arabia will establish a cultural centre in Paris aimed at strengthening cultural ties with France through programmes, partnerships and professional exchange.
The Ministry of Culture unveiled the plan in Paris during the visit of Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman to France.
The centre will bring together Saudi and French creatives, cultural organisations and institutions, with programming intended to showcase both countries’ culture and heritage while creating new opportunities for artists and practitioners.
It will also work with leading cultural institutions and professionals in France to support collaboration across different parts of the cultural sector, from artistic exchange to institutional partnerships.
According to the ministry, the centre forms part of Saudi Arabia’s broader international cultural engagement, with a focus on building longer-term connections between creative communities and cultural organisations in the Kingdom and abroad.
