This autumn, Jordan invites travellers to discover the Kingdom through a vibrant calendar of cultural festivals, music, cinema, outdoor adventures, and international events. From exploring ancient landscapes to enjoying world-class performances, every experience offers a unique way to connect with Jordan.
The season begins with an evening of music at the Dead Sea, where internationally acclaimed DJ Pascal Junior performs on August 28, 2026. Set against one of the world’s most iconic natural wonders, the event combines spectacular views, music, and the unique atmosphere of the Dead Sea, creating an unforgettable experience for visitors.
Film lovers can then head to Amman for the European Film Festival, taking place from September 13 to 30, 2026. The festival showcases a curated selection of award-winning European films while celebrating storytelling, creativity, and cultural exchange in Jordan’s vibrant capital. It offers visitors an opportunity to experience cinema from across Europe while discovering Amman’s thriving arts and cultural scene.
Adventure seekers can experience Jordan in a completely different way during the Jordan Trail Thru-Hike, running from October 9 to November 18 2026. Stretching from Umm Qais in the north to Aqaba in the south, the trail takes hikers through forests, mountains, traditional villages, Petra, and the spectacular desert landscapes of Wadi Rum. Whether completing the full trail or joining shorter guided sections, it’s one of the most immersive ways to experience the country’s natural beauty and heritage.
Towards the end of October, Amman will host the Global Real Estate Investment Expo 2026 from 29 to 31 October, bringing together international investors, developers, and business leaders. While primarily a business event, it further highlights Jordan’s growing role as a regional hub for investment, innovation, and international collaboration.
Beyond these events, Jordan continues to offer experiences that leave a lasting impression. Float effortlessly in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea, wander through the timeless beauty of Petra, camp beneath the stars in Wadi Rum, or unwind on the shores of Aqaba. Together, these experiences make the second half of 2026 the perfect time to discover a destination where culture, adventure, history, and warm hospitality come together.
From cultural celebrations and cinematic experiences to unforgettable outdoor adventures, Jordan’s calendar for the remainder of 2026 offers plenty of reasons to visit. It’s an opportunity to go beyond the guidebook, connect with local culture, and create memories that last long after the journey ends.
