Survey on Saudi Arabia Hosting Asian Winter Games in Neom

For the first time, located in the center of the desert, Saudi Arabia will host the Asian Winter Games in 2029 at the future megacity of Neom. Saudi Arabia has won the bid to host the 2029 Asian Winter Games at its Trojena resort, which is being planned as part of the Neom complex by Zaha Hadid Architects, Bureau Proberts, etc.

The Asian Winter Games will be held in a mountain resort in the proposed futuristic city of Neom. It will be the first Middle Eastern country to host the tournament, including skiing, skating, ice hockey, snowboarding, and other winter sports.

The games will be held in Trojena, a yet-to-be-built Neom area in the kingdom’s northwestern mountain range that is being marketed as a new tourist destination for winter sports. According to a tweet by the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA), “The deserts and mountains of Saudi Arabia will soon be a playground for winter sports.” Around 45 Asian National Olympic countries will be competing in the tournament.

There is some concern that Saudi Arabia cannot sustain a massive sports event in a yet-to-be-built city or resort. This was said in light of the gradual climate change, their futuristic goals, and the temperature in the Gulf. The record of Saudi Arabia has also drawn major criticism. Sports events in Saudi Arabia are sometimes accused of being a diversion from human rights breaches. This is also known as “sportswashing.” The officials counter the backlash by saying that they are moving toward a better society. The survey aims to seek public opinion on Saudi Arabia’s move towards modernization. It also seeks views on hosting winter sports in the desert.
