On Friday, Italian opera singer Andrea Bocelli wowed Saudi audiences at a concert held as part of the country’s Winter at Tantora festival. 

During his time on stage, the popular tenor performed some of his most popular hits and expressed his excitement at visiting the kingdom.

“This is my first time to perform in Saudi Arabia, and I’m very pleased with the great reception and hospitality I received from the organizers and the wonderful audience here,” he said.

Bocelli’s performance was amazingly received by Saudis, but to many, the highlight of the night was when the popular tenor stepped out on stage donning a shemagh (traditional men’s headdress in the kingdom).
