RIYADH: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is set to host the 22nd session of the Arab Radio and Television Festival for the first time from Nov. 7 to 10, with wide international participation.
The festival will discuss the most prominent issues and challenges facing the Arab media today in light of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which paved the way for a digital world that is more interconnected than ever before.
The festival will be accompanied by an 'Exhibition for the Production and Media Content Industry'. It will also include two competitions, the main one is dedicated to television programs and news produced by the Union's member bodies, while the parallel competition will be devoted to programs and news produced by private Arab networks and foreign Arabic-speaking television networks, as well as satellite channels and production companies that are not members of the Union.
The festival, organized by the Saudi Broadcasting Authority (SBA), is expected to witness the participation and attendance of more than 1,000 media professionals from around the world.
It will also witness the participation of many international media organizations, including the World Broadcasting Union (WBU), the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), the Asian Broadcasting Union (ABU), among others.
