Summary:

During Sukkot, an immersive event takes place at the Yehiam Fortress National Park, combining art, music, and tours of the ancient fortress. The event features actors and living statues, musicians, a barefoot trail for children, and guided tours with scenic views. Activities run in sessions on Monday through Wednesday at 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM.

Description (translated from Hebrew):

This Sukkot, we venture into the Galilee landscape, breathe deeply, and enjoy the perfect blend of past and present. Join us to celebrate a holiday of freedom and creativity on a special day where the walls of the ancient fortress transform into a vibrant, living stage.

As part of the "Breathing Culture" project in cooperation with The Israel Lottery Foundations (Mifal HaPayis), we have prepared an out-of-the-box experience:

Art in Space: Actors and living statues will surprise you among the walls and bring history back to life.
Sounds Within the Walls: Musicians will fill the fortress spaces with live, touching music.
Starting with a Smile: Upon entry, you can take off your shoes and enjoy the open-air barefoot footpath – a sensory and colorful experience for children (and those who feel young at heart).
Family Journey: Guided tours by Nature and Parks Authority guides and breathtaking views from the top of the fortress.

Step out of the house for an experiential and connecting activity, support public space artists, and come breathe culture against the backdrop of the open Galilee landscape.

The activity takes place in shifts throughout the day, and the artists change every day and are waiting for you!

When: Monday-Wednesday, September 28-30.
Tour times: 11:00, 13:00
