AMMAN — Abdali Boulevard in downtown Amman on Sunday welcomed the holiday season with the lighting of its Christmas tree, offering a festive atmosphere for visitors of all ages to enjoy an "exceptional and harmonious" experience.

"The Christmas tree was lit in a special ceremony that became an integral part of the holiday season, turning the boulevard into a winter wonderland offering free events until the start of 2025," Abdali Investment and Development Company said in a statement.

Abdali Boulevard, a popular pedestrian area lined with shops, restaurants, cafes, and residences, is hosting this year its first-ever three-week Christmas market, according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra.

The market, organised by Jordanian events company 165 Entertainment, features live entertainment, carnival games, a food market, an ice skating rink, and a bazaar showcasing local products.

The Boulevard will also host Amman Street Fashion, a pop-up shop concept offering a unique blend of fashion designers, home accessories, new startups, jewellery designers, and more, the statement said.

Abdali Mall is also celebrating the season with the Les Createurs Christmas Edition, a special exhibition of handmade gifts crafted by artisans from Jordan and the region.
