With the theme "In Search of the Al-Andalus Spirit", this cultural event will highlight the period of peaceful coexistence among the Abrahamic religions in Andalusia from the 8th to the 15th century, often referred to as a golden age whose influence persists in Morocco, as stated in a statement by the organizers.
This new edition will showcase Spain through a program and performances that celebrate the historical and friendly ties between the Iberian Peninsula and Morocco, aiming for a better future.
Proud of its role as a host city, Fes will once again welcome the world. The festival, set amidst an embellished city and beautifully restored medina, will allow visitors to rediscover prestigious sites, gardens, and iconic locations of a thousand-year-old city, a true spiritual capital of the Kingdom.
