Tel Aviv to offer three days of concerts for vaccinated Israelis
The cultural event will allow 500 people inside the stadium and feature four performances
The Tel Aviv-Yafo municipality will celebrate the reopening of the city's cultural sector this weekend with a series of concerts at Bloomfield Stadium for vaccinated residents, the town hall said in a statement.
The four open-air concerts will accommodate up to 500 people and feature performances by Ivri Lider, Shalom Hanoch, Yardena Arazi, and Dikla.
On arrival, spectators must present their identity card and "green passport," a certificate proving they have received two vaccine injections.
In addition, the public will be seated on allocated seats in order to respect social distancing.
Tickets will be available for DigiTel cardholders from Wednesday, March 3 at noon.
Earlier this week, the Israeli government began to institute a plan that will gradually reopen the country's economy and entertainment sectors, which includes indoor dining and school attendance.
But some have protested the "green passport" system as unethical and discriminatory toward individuals who have outstanding concerns over the vaccine treatment, which uses newly developed mRNA technology.
In February, hundreds gathered at Habima Square in central Tel Aviv to protest against the "green passport" and the registration of unvaccinated people, which they say violate their individual freedom and civil rights.
Israeli Health Ministry has launched the "green passport" initiative to allow people vaccinated or who have recovered from the coronavirus to be admitted to different places of recreation, sports and culture.
