Festival “Goodness Will Come from the South”: Banai, Benayoun, Shahaf, Petrover, Glykeria, Jerusalem Orchestra, and Children’s Choir

In addition to the musical program, guests can look forward to a culinary zone featuring dishes and products from local producers.

On March 5, 2026, Eshkol National Park (Ha-Besor) will host one of the most significant cultural events in Israel in recent years — the festival “Goodness Will Come from the South.” After being forced to cancel during the war, this event symbolizes the revival of cultural life in border communities.

A special highlight of the evening will be the performance of the children’s choir “Nitzaney Ha-Otef”, composed of young residents from the border settlements. They are set to perform alongside renowned Israeli artists: Ehud Banai, Amir Benayoun, Orit Shahaf, and Tom Petrover (HaYehudim), Glykeria, and others, as well as the Jerusalem East–West Orchestra.

In addition to the music program, guests can enjoy a culinary area featuring dishes and products from local producers — emphasizing support for the region’s small businesses.
