Festivals and cultural events Jordan

If you are not exhausted from visiting the site during the day, you can try the experience. 1,500 candles lit between the entrance of the Siq and the Khazneh, all accompanied by traditional music and texts telling the history of the city, it's enchanting, but know that some visitors leave disappointed...

On the last Thursday in July, this festival of electronic music in Wadi Rum, in the middle of the desert, is an opportunity to dance all night on recognized DJ's electronica. An incredible setting for a holiday under the stars that lasts all night, and continues the following day in Aqaba, for a beach party to the south beach.

Every early December, Disah is transformed into a vast racetrack... for camels. More than 500 camels participate in this festival which attracts spectators from all over the region and even from neighboring countries. The camels compete on a vast "camelodrome" followed by their trainers screaming from the top of their pick-up trucks launched at full speed on the edge of the track. Some mounted races are still run with child jockeys. If you're in the area, don't miss this exciting spectacle for us.
