Temporary Power for The Saudi Cup

As the richest horse meeting in the world, The Saudi Cup is the pinnacle of the international racing calendar. Each edition transforms King Abdulaziz Racecourse in Riyadh with extensive temporary hospitality, media facilities, and guest services that sit well beyond permanent racecourse infrastructure.

FLOW has been involved from the event’s inauguration in 2019 through to 2022, providing power solutions and engineering design to vast temporary hospitality suites. Best-in-class generators and specialist event distribution ensured thousands of spectators were supported throughout the racing programme.

Repeat multi-year delivery for a flagship Saudi sports property reflects the operational reality of Gulf racing: temporary power is a core hospitality service, not a last-minute rental.

What FLOW delivered

• Power: Generators and specialist event distribution feeding temporary hospitality suites and spectator-facing overlay across race days.
• Design: Engineering design for temporary electrical systems serving large hospitality footprints at King Abdulaziz Racecourse.
• Multi-year continuity: Support from the inaugural 2019 meeting through 2022, aligning plant and distribution with evolving hospitality layouts.

Why it mattered

Premium racing hospitality is electrically dense: kitchens, climate systems, AV, lighting, and IT all compete for capacity while guests expect hotel-grade reliability. Temporary distribution must be safe, serviceable, and quiet enough for high-end environments beside the track.

Unlike a single concert peak, race meetings run across a programme of days with changing occupancy and broadcast windows. Power design has to cover continuous base load and race-day spikes without disrupting service in marquee suites.

For organisers building world-class sports hospitality in Riyadh, The Saudi Cup shows how temporary power and engineering design underpin guest experience at the top of the global racing calendar.
