Fès Restaurants Can Serve Alcohol to Tourists During Ramadan

End of a long-standing ban in Fès. Local authorities now allow tourist establishments and restaurants to serve alcoholic beverages to foreign visitors during the month of Ramadan, a decision aimed at reviving the city’s appeal.

Until now, many establishments in Morocco’s spiritual capital refrained from serving alcohol to foreigners during the holy month. The restriction was motivated by respect for traditions, but according to industry professionals, it damaged Fès’s image as a tourist destination among international customers expecting comprehensive hotel services.

This new directive, unprecedented in years, reflects an effort to reconcile the city’s religious identity with the sector’s economic imperatives, Goud reports. By allowing classified hotels and restaurants to meet the expectations of their international guests, Fès hopes to strengthen its position as a leading cultural and spiritual destination while remaining competitive in the global market.
