Jerash Festival © Moira Burke
Jerash Festival of Culture and Arts
Jerash has hosted this major arts festival since 1980. The Roman
ruins feature as stages and all venues are within the old city,
easily accessible from modern Jerash. It is a remarkable experience
to see this ancient city - two millenia old - burst into life over
the two-week period of the festival. Past editions have attracted
internationally renowned poets, musicians, dancers and actors from
over 30 countries.
Date: July/August annually
