The “Hutzot Hayotzer” Arts Fair was first established in 1976 and has since become Israel’s biggest and most long-standing international festival. This year, alongside many thrilling art exhibitions, its horizons are widening even further, with the inclusion of live music shows, circus acts, a food-truck festival and more, all taking place in Jerusalem’s Hinnom Valley.

The ANU Museum of the Jewish People, located on the grounds of the Tel Aviv University campus, is the biggest Jewish museum in the world. Fun family activities are available all summer, notably one called “The Secret Five”, a multisensory experience in which five trailblazing Jewish figures tell their own stories via interactive exhibits. The museum offers a plethora of exhibitions, displays, documentaries, children’s activities, and workshops, all telling the story of 4000 years of Jewish history.

Dragonland is a one-of-a-kind dragons’ park located on the grounds of Tel Aviv’s Yehoshua Gardens. It’s a multisensory virtual reality experience that takes visitors on a magical dragon ride through treetops and dragons’ nests. The park also offers many other family activities, such as lakeside boat rides, photo booths, a dragons’ train ride for toddlers, and more. The park abounds with ventilated areas in the shade, for families to relax and take shelter from the sun, and in case anyone gets hungry, food stalls provide many “on-the-go” options.
