  Shabbat shutdown

  1 jan – 31 decStängningar

  Buses and trains stop on Friday afternoon and restart on Saturday night, and a lot of the country shuts with them. Tel Aviv is the exception that still runs restaurants, beaches and sherut taxis. Källa ↗

• Festival

  Tel Aviv Marathon

  15 feb – 10 mar · vanligtvisSportevenemangTrångtStängningar

  Purim

  20 feb – 25 mar · vanligtvisReligiös högtidTrångt

  The one night the city dresses up and drinks in the street; Florentin and the Rothschild end of town are the centre of it, and the parties run to daylight. The date moves with the Hebrew calendar. Källa ↗

  Sharav heat spikes

  Independence Day

  14 apr – 15 maj · vanligtvisNationell helgdagStängningarTrångt

  Memorial Day, when sirens stop traffic and entertainment venues close, runs straight into Independence Day: fireworks in the evening, then a public holiday of barbecues in packed parks, beaches and nature reserves. Public transport is limited and many shops close. Källa ↗

  Swimming season

  15 maj – 15 novHavet varmt nog

  The sea is comfortable without a wetsuit from about mid-May to mid-November, and the lifeguard towers work to that calendar. October is the local secret: warm water, empty sand, no queue for a chair.
