RIYADH: The Northern Borders Region has experienced exceptional weather for the launch of the Suhail Nights Festival, an event which represents the deep relationship between the local community and the Suhail star.

The event, which is organized by the Northern Borders Chamber in cooperation with several government and private entities, runs until Sept. 13.
