Arab Nomad Fest is a 7-day hybrid festival that brings together Arab digital nomads, remote workers, freelancers and creators from the Arab world and beyond. The first edition takes place October 26 – November 1, 2026 in Taghazout, Morocco's iconic surf village on the Atlantic coast. Organized by Arab Digital Nomads — the community founded by Muhammed Alard to champion location-independent work in the region — the festival combines real connection, inspiring sessions and an authentic Moroccan experience: surf, sunsets and community on the Taghazout bay. The speaker lineup showcases experts and creators from across the Arab world and its diaspora, with talks spanning mindset and growth, the nomad lifestyle, culture and identity, and global mobility — including travelers who have visited 200+ countries and founders building for the region's remote-work generation. Beyond talks, the program embraces the hybrid spirit of the community: side events, WhatsApp-community networking, volunteer and speaker opportunities, and plenty of space for the spontaneous connections Taghazout is famous for. It is the gathering point for the fast-growing Arabic-speaking nomad scene.
