Around 52 plays, dance shows, and concerts by professional and semi-professional artists will take place throughout one week at the city’s major concert halls and theaters, including the Jerusalem Theater, the Gerard Behar Center, the Yellow Submarine, the YMCA auditorium and other major cultural centers of the city.

Jerusalem Theater features free performances every evening before and after the main concerts of the day.

Through its promotion and encouragement of a wide range of performance disciplines, the Jerusalem Arts Festival allows the public to attend quality shows at affordable prices. The festival, which has been produced annually by the Culture and Arts Department of the Jerusalem Municipality since 2002, has become a cultural tradition in the city, with hundreds of artists participating in dozens of performances. It was a personal initiative of the late Ofer Maliach, who will be honored during a special memorial evening.

The festival will be opened with a moving show dedicated to the famed Israeli poet Yehuda Amichai, attended by the mayor, Mr. Moshe Leon, and the family of Mr. Amichai.
