Tel Aviv-Jaffa is preparing for its iconic White Night 2025, set to take place on Thursday, August 28, from sunset until the early morning hours. The annual cultural festival, featuring concerts, art installations, street performances, and community events, will offer free or low-cost entry across dozens of venues.
This year, the event carries extra weight: following months of national turmoil and a postponed edition due to the war with Hezbollah, organizers describe the festival as a statement of resilience, proving the city’s cultural heartbeat remains strong.
“White Night is a declaration of a city that breathes freedom and a community that never stops creating, innovating and dreaming,” said Deputy Mayor Chen Arieli, who oversees Tel Aviv’s cultural portfolio. “Especially now, in such painful and complex days, we choose to hold onto culture, community and hope.”
