Club Background

Founded by culturally curious Saudis with firsthand experience in Latin America The Saudi Spanish Club was born out of a desire to connect two rich civilizations: the Arab and the Hispanic. Club president Khalid Alzamil, having lived in Colombia, envisioned a community where Saudis, Spanish and Latinos could collaborate, celebrate, and support one another. Since its founding, the club has become a hub for embassies, Spanish speakers, and culturally engaged Saudis across the Kingdom.
