ISRAELIS TURN TO CYPRUS FOR CONCERTS AS INTERNATIONAL ACTS SHUN HOME STAGES





ISRAELIS TURN TO CYPRUS FOR CONCERTS AS INTERNATIONAL ACTS SHUN HOME STAGES - Cy Mail 30/10 by James Morphakis


Cyprus is increasingly being chosen by Israelis as a destination for live music, with tourism firms reporting on Friday that the lack of international artists performing in Israel is driving demand for festivals and club nights on the island.

Speaking to Israeli news outlet Mako, Prof Alon Gelbman, head of the master’s programme in tourism at Kinneret Academic, said the security situation and the absence of many international artists from Israeli stages were pushing young people towards “alternative destinations”.

He said Cyprus had a clear advantage for Israeli tourists due to its “proximity and short flight time”.
