According to the Jerusalem Festival organizers, the spectacular Majida El-Roumi will perform through a live satellite broadcast from Beirut on the Jerusalem screens.

According to the Festival organizers "the Lady Majida el Roumi will launch the Jerusalem Festivals for this year and this will be through the live satellite broadcast on the Jazeera TV this Wednesday evening.
Although it is very unconventional to perform through satellite broadcast, the Arab artist has refused for long to be part of the Jerusalem festivals if they need an Israeli Visa to enter Palestine.
