Amphitheater in the Yarkon Park
 |
Every summer the Israel Philharmonic under the direction
of Maestro Zubin Mehta performs concerts for the enjoyment of Israelis
and tourists in Tel Aviv's largest park, Hayarkon Park. The Israeli
Opera, concerts by world-renowned entertainers, such as Madonna, Celine
Dion, Julio Iglesias, Michael Jackson, U2 and many others have also
taken place in the park.
During recent years, the need for a larger
amphitheater,
which will be able to meet the growing demand and interest, has become
more obvious and urgent, mainly during the warmer season which lasts for
more than six months. Tens of thousands of Israelis from all over
the country travel to Tel Aviv for these performances. |

Ganei-Yehoshua Park, covering about 3,500 dunams (9000
acres) on the northern bank of the Yarkon River, every summer hosts
dozens of cultural events, of different natures: classic & modern music
concerts, theatre production, fashion shows, and many others. In the
past year, the park has held several major Israeli events. To host all
these activities, a temporary suitable stage is being built prior to
each event, and then dismantled. All this at a repeatedly high cost.
The Amphitheater in the Park would create a modern
and permanent home to all the many artists who use this venue to share
their art with the public. |
