The outlet reported that over 500,000 fans attended last year's event, which would take place on the outskirts of Riyadh.

The outlet mentioned that Soundstorm 2022 was amazing with over 200 acts across seven stages, including Bruno Mars, Post Malone, Steve Aoki and DJ Khaled.

The outlet further said that tickets for the fifth edition of Soundstorm will be available which begins at 209 Saudi riyals for a three-day pass.

The news came after Glastonbury bosses eyed Eminem for Glastonbury 2025 festival. This year, more than 210,000 fans attended last weekend's event was slammed the “dreadful” performances by Dua Lipa, Coldplay and SZA.

A festival source told MailOnline, “While many are putting a brave face on the fact that the festival wasn't exactly a success this year, they are already preparing for a bigger and better line-up next year.”

Glastonbury bosses believed Eminem “will be their saviour after so few people went to watch SZA. They have everything crossed that he will say yes”.
