On Friday, January 2, 2026, the Ashar Valley will resonate with a unique fusion of sounds as two global musical powerhouses take the stage.

The Gipsy Kings featuring Nicolas Reyes return to the Kingdom to deliver their world-renowned blend of flamenco, salsa, and pop. As the original voice behind global anthems like "Bamboléo" and "Djobi Djoba," Reyes continues to carry the torch of a legacy that has spanned over 30 years and millions of album sales. Their performance is expected to bring a vibrant, high-energy atmosphere to the mirrored hall, bridging the gap between the traditions of southern France and the ancient heritage of AlUla.

Sharing the spotlight is the acclaimed Lebanese-Armenian musician, Guy Manoukian. Known for his ability to fuse contemporary melodies with traditional Arab musical structures, the pianist and composer has sold out venues worldwide, from the Sydney Opera House to the London Palladium. His performance at Maraya is set to be a masterclass in "Oriental Fusion," offering a sophisticated, instrumental narrative that perfectly complements the venue's reflective surroundings.

For international and local travellers, the concert represents a highlight of the Winter at Tantora season — the signature festival of the AlUla Moments calendar that celebrates art, music, and culture in the heart of the Kingdom's first UNESCO World Heritage site.

The "Gipsy Kings x Guy Manoukian" concert is the latest in a series of high-profile bookings for the RCU (Royal Commission for AlUla), which has previously hosted icons like Andrea Bocelli, Alicia Keys, and Mariah Carey. By pairing the upbeat, rhythmic soul of rumba flamenca with the refined elegance of Manoukian’s piano, AlUla continues to establish itself as the premier destination for diverse, world-class entertainment in the Middle East.Star
