Kuwait Municipality to stop christmas sales

  • 07/12/2023

The municipality has instructed the shops to remove all decorations related to Christmas.  After a challenging year, the municipality's decision has caused concern among expatriates and shopkeepers who are looking forward to the festive season. 


Kuwait has previously banned the sale of Christmas decorations in shops due to objections from some citizens that they were incompatible with the country's religion, customs and traditions. Last year, the management committee of Avenues Mall removed the huge Christmas tree installed inside the mall after citizens complained to the Kuwait Municipality.
