Dhahran — Thousands of visitors recently flocked to the King’s Park area for the 2018 Festival of Colors, the Saudi Aramco Employees Association’s annual fall festival.

Muhammad M. Al Saggaf, Saudi Aramco senior vice president of Operations & Business Services, was on hand to officially kick off the event, and then toured the many activities.

“This is a festival for all of our members to enjoy,” said SAEA president Taha A. Alsafi.
