Ammon News - Jordanian Artists Association President Dr. Hani Al-Jarrah confirmed that Lebanese singer Fadel Shaker's concert in Jordan will go ahead as scheduled and will not be banned by the association.

Al-Jarrah told "Ammon News" that the concert organizers had regularized their legal status with the Jordanian Artists Association, making the event legally compliant from the association's perspective.

The confirmation comes after the Jordanian Artists Association asked the Balqa Governor late last week to halt Fadel Shaker's concert, which is set to feature his son, Mohammad, in the Dead Sea area.

The association based its request on the provisions of the Jordanian Artists Association Law No. 9 of 1997 and the regulations and instructions issued thereunder, which require obtaining the necessary permits in advance before conducting any artistic activity or performance in the Kingdom.

It explained that the event involves artistic activities, including singing, playing instruments and musical performances, requiring a professional artistic practice permit in accordance with legal procedures and the relevant Interior Minister's circular.
