You know big money is involved when a celebrity gets summoned to entertain the Saudi Arabian royal family. Bill Burr and a host of other comedians were recently heavily criticized for performing at a comedy festival in Riyadh, and now internet sensation MrBeast is heading there too, with his own theme park. You heard right: Beast Land is officially opening next week on November 13 during Riyadh Season 2025. It’s described as a “first-of-its-kind destination inspired by the world-famous challenges of MrBeast, where adventure, competition, and entertainment collide.”
“I didn’t want this to be like a typical theme park,” MrBeast Tweets on X, explaining how his attractions will feature “tons of original games,” on top of the rollercoasters and rides available. As an American-based, English-speaking influencer, some might find it quite odd that he decided to take things across the Atlantic to provide entertainment in the Middle East. MrBeast claims it’s because he has “a big middle eastern fan base” and “wanted to give them a chance to participate.” However, it’s evident to everyone that he signed a deal with the government-funded Riyadh Season, and now he’s following through with Beast Land.
MrBeast shared several pictures on X of some of the highlight attractions of his Saudi Arabian theme park, such as Tower Siege, Drop Zone, and Airmail. While these games don’t look dangerous by any means, many will recall the YouTuber was in a lawsuit just last September involving plenty of allegations from the bad experiences both contestants and employees had from his Beast Games. Not to mention, MrBeast isn’t exactly someone who’s clean of controversies either, but that, of course, didn’t stop the Saudi Arabian royal family from hiring him as one of their entertainers. The country’s government has its own share of controversial skeletons in its closet.
“Next season of beast games will be dissidents actually trying to survive,” jokes one Reddit user. “If you lose, you get beheaded,” morbidly adds another. Yet, jokes aside, one person points out how it “Could be 10 miles, or 100 miles distance where they behead people in public.” “Now instead of wage slaves attending the park goers needs theres actual slaves!” exclaims a fourth. MrBeast’s the grift that keeps grifting, and this Saudi Arabian deal is peak proof that he’s sold out to the max.
At the very least, those looking to visit Beast Land won’t have to pay as much as Disneyland, besides the possible travel fees. Admission is $7, while the Beast Mode+ pass will cost around $66. Not to mention, attendees will have a chance at “the world’s largest prize wall.”
