yeah it's apparently in arena which is the biggest freestanding dome in the world, even beating Tokyo Dome

Wow!

Too bad it’s not in Dubai or Qatar.

I’m not sure about Saudi and women but Idk.

Maybe we have Saudis here that can tell us how it is and if you need a dress code?

Also the superdome has a capacity of 40k.

Can they fill that you think?

Quote from cherryblossom9

There's no dress code and everyone attends. There are no restrictions. I'm going 2 days.

The only issue is they announced it so late

Yes it’s very short notice.

I wrote to them for more info re the length of the concerts but they might be too busy to answer.

40K people🤗 I hope they sell all tickets.

I’d love to visit Saudi. Do u live there?

Quote from monalisalove

Luck you guys! I live in Brazil so a festival like this is impossible and if does happen it'll be in São Paulo which is far far from where I live

It’s not impossible😊. Sao P is where most Chinese live (I know this how…?) but what about Koreans?

Quote from quarkie

It's extremely popular!

I spoke to a friend in Dubai and he didn’t know if it was popular there👀.

Like Suho was just there!

He said: huh?

I never noticed many middle eastern users on this forum

Actually how popular is kpop in the middle east or in Saudi Arabia?

Many:-).

Everyone is here - its great we are from different places and are united with kpop

Quote from dummi

Kpop is popular in the middle east despite the rampant racism against Asians, even in Lebanon you'll see T-Shirts with idols faces on them

Middle East people are racists against asians?

👀

I knew from some countries but I didnt think it was asia as a whole?

Quote from monalisalove

92% of the Koreans that live here are in São Paulo kkkkkkkkkk anyways, now thats what a call a double kill kkkkkk

Ok it will be in SP then

Then u need to travel 🤓

Quote from dummi

Yeah there's actually a huge problem in the middle east with "maids" usually from African (black presenting, because if you're light then you pass lmfao) or Asian backgrounds. They are mistreated horribly and there's also a general ignorance about Asians as a whole.

Yes I know this - and a lot of people from Sri Lanka and Philipines need jobs🥹.

Quote from monalisalove

Why you bullying me? kkkkkkk

Bruh I have to travel too!!!

Like the festival that was supposed to be in Sweden got cancelled.

So flights, hotel etc.
