The Palestinian Forum in Britain (PFB) has invited Palestinians, Arabs and friends across the UK to attend its 10th Annual Iftar, scheduled for Saturday, 28 February 2026, at Byron Hall in London. The event is sponsored by Royal Jordanian, Levantine Express, SAWA Travel and Ayam Zaman.

This year’s gathering marks a decade of a communal table that has brought together Palestinians and supporters of their just cause, as part of the Forum’s 22-year journey of community service and advocacy.

Strategic Partners and Prizes for Attendees

The Forum announced details of its strategic sponsorships for the event. As the official carrier, Royal Jordanian will offer two return tickets (London–Amman–London) to winners of the cultural “Kahoot” competition draw.

Meanwhile, Levantine Express will celebrate the launch of its new money transfer service, offering free transfers to Palestine during the first month. SAWA Travel will provide attendees with major discount vouchers on a range of holiday packages.

Ayam Zaman, the well-known restaurant in Shepherd’s Bush, also features prominently among the sponsors. The restaurant is contributing part of the food served at the Iftar and offering a selection of valuable prizes to guests, supporting the success of the event’s milestone tenth edition.

A Spiritual and Solidarity Gathering

The Forum noted that the 10th annual event is expected to host a large family gathering of more than 1,000 attendees. The programme will include Taraweeh prayers and supplications for Palestine led by Sheikh Abdul Rahman Al-Jaki.

Highlights will also include a “Heritage Corner” serving freshly made Nabulsi knafeh, a “Palestine Café,” and an open donation drive to support humanitarian relief efforts in Palestine, alongside the annual family Kahoot competition.

The event is supported by media partners including the Arabs in Britain platform (AUK), Al Hiwar Channel and Islam Channel.

Ramadan’s Message: Resilience Amid Pain

Commenting on the occasion, the Palestinian Forum said that while Ramadan arrives this year with its spiritual radiance, it also reflects the painful realities facing the Ummah — from the bleeding wounds of Gaza to the cries of Sudan. In many homes, the Iftar table has become, in their words, a “season of loss,” where survivors sit in the absence of loved ones.

The Forum stressed that this reality demands collective responsibility: to heal wounds, transform pain into hope, and turn grief into action — and to ensure that the occupying power does not succeed in breaking Palestinian resolve.

50% of Seats Already Sold

Organisers revealed that around 50% of tickets have already been sold, urging those wishing to attend to secure their seats promptly due to high demand and the likelihood of a sell-out. Ticket prices start from £18.
