The Israel Festival is the largest and most important international arts and cultural festival in the land and has chosen Jerusalem as its eternal home(save for a few scattered events in other cities). The Festival, which runs this year for three weeks, features high-end theater, music, and dance performances. There will be plenty of free night time jazz, taking place almost every night of the festival in the Jerusalem Theatre’s foyer, at 23:00. There are programs for the little folks as well, with a number of plays and stories catering specifically to the playground set. The Festival, which runs from May 24 through June 11, takes place at a number of different Jerusalem locations. For a full run down of Festival locations, prices and events, please see the Festival’s official website:
