What is Hala Yalla?
Hala Yalla is Saudi Arabia’s first Super App for sports, entertainment, culture, communities & more.
A Saudi born and built super app that seamlessly connects online and offline experiences across sports and entertainment industries in the Kingdom. Aligning with the nation’s journey towards the goals of Vision 2030, we aim to be the ultimate social, interactive & consumer-driven super app in Saudi Arabia.
Hala Yalla helps citizens and residents lead healthier, more active, and fulfilling lives. We do this by simplifying participation in sports, entertainment, and social activities with a couple of taps on your phone.
Our Philosophy
It’s pretty simple. We plan to become Saudi 1st super app of global standards that transforms and grows the digital landscape of the Middle East. We know what people want, and we know how to give it to them. We’re always willing to expand our capabilities across new industries, platforms, genres, audiences, and geographies.
Our History
When were we founded you mean? Some say that Hala Yalla Super App has been around since the dawn of time, a seed of an idea just waiting for the right group of individuals to come together and plant it. Others say that this is quite clearly nonsense, the company was founded in 2016 and that those who believe this ‘dawn of time’ theory should seek medical attention.

Why Invest in Hala Yalla Super App?
There’s no question about the scale of opportunity when it comes to Hala Yalla Super App. As it stands, the Saudi population spends on average $22 billion dollars in tourism and entertainment outside the country every year. As part of Saudi Vision 2030, the government aims to transform 25% of that spending into local travel and entertainment by partnering with private companies.
This government initiative is on the back of an ever-growing need and thirst for entertainment activities and organized health and sporting events that a growing population is demanding.
While early adopters are going to be young tech-savvy individuals, the real opportunity of the platform is that it caters to the needs of all demographics. Hala Yalla Super App has the potential to be transformative to all levels of Saudi society and play a major part in achieving the entertainment and health goals of the population for Saudi Vision 2030.
Since it’s initial beta-launch, the super app has grown from strength to strength with constant organic growth of the user base resulting in real-world feedback to help improve its design and functionality.

The first is the trial of the body. You must complete a series of life-threatening obstacle courses that only the bravest have completed.
Second is the trial of the mind. You will go head to head with Hala Yalla’s brightest mind in a challenge of the wits in a game of Jenga.
Finally, there’s the trial of the soul. We’re not really sure what this trial is going to involve, but it felt like there should be three of these. We’ll keep you posted.
