How exciting it is to reach this moment. No matter how we look at it, it’s amazing, unprecedented, and totally crazy that we’re celebrating 10 years of IMAGINE.
It’s been a beautiful, spectacular, mind-blowing journey full of twists and turns, one that surpassed all imagination, made up of an incredible mosaic of moments and colors, one that has gone through pandemics and wars, one that has touched lives and moved tens of thousands of people, a journey that built and gathered around it a perfect community of beautiful people – that’s you.
Ten years, twice a year, we gather – once for Purim and again right after Sukkot and the holidays, to do what we do.
It’s pretty amazing to look back and see everything IMAGINE has brought with it, everything it’s created, the number of moments that were created in people’s lives, the encounters, the music, the dance floors over the years, how many moments of happiness, bliss, and absolute madness we’ve had together in the last 10 years. So many adventures, so many realities created through it, how much of an impact it left, how much magic dust and inspiration it spread.
For that, we owe a huge thank you to you, our amazing community, for the love and dedication, for the vibes, the happiness in your eyes, the creativity, the love, the madness on the dance floor. We always said to ourselves how IMAGINE gathered the sweetest, cutest, most beautiful crowd in the world. That’s always the feeling when walking around the festival and seeing this, seeing you, over and over again. It’s an immense joy, and it’s not something we take for granted, so thank you for that.
And thank you to IMAGINE, for bringing us together, for connecting us, for creating a space that takes us on its wings to unforgettable experiences. Over the years, it’s felt like IMAGINE has become a living entity, a huge whole made up of all its parts. So thank you, IMAGINE, for the privilege and opportunity.
Now we’re opening a new decade, IMAGINE’s second decade, and we continue to invite you to bring yourselves inside and come soar on the wings of imagination, with the music, the desert, and friends on wonderful adventures.
So, you’re all invited to the three most colorful, joyful, wild, adventurous, and mind-blowing days of the year.
A fantastical village will come to life and be filled with friends, wrapped in the endless spaces of the desert, in the most remote settlement in Israel, far from the chaos of the rest of the world, somewhere under an infinite sky, beneath the full moon of Purim, a colorful and perfect world will be created where new legends, breaking the boundaries of time and space, will be written.
IMAGINE is returning with a creative and rich Purim edition that will break even more records. Our sound spaceship will take off and lead us on a continuous, multidimensional 48-hour musical journey, a rare ritual of two nights and three days, a journey that will take us through four stages, with the best artists and performers we love, all performing at the right time to give their best.
They’ve created and will connect together to create an enchanted and electrifying sequence of live performances, countless parties, and DJ sets, a flow that will pass through sunrises, sunsets, happy afternoons, long and hypnotic musical nights, all with perfect sound quality in the heart of the desert, surrounded by an elaborate set and a unique atmosphere, and of course, with friends and a beautiful, sweet community. IMAGINE.
An ongoing, never-ending colorful celebration made up of countless performances and parties, the perfect situation that could ever be. IMAGINE is a tradition that started in 2015 and since then has come twice a year, once for Purim and right after Sukkot.
Along with the four stages, there will be four workshop areas, with amazing facilitators offering workshops in circus arts, theater, yoga, meditation, communication, movement, improvisation, and more. These workshops will run throughout the festival, inviting us to play, experiment, get inspired, and learn together.
This is Imagine, this is Purim, this is the laughter, the costumes, the colors, the wild imagination, the endless possibilities, the celebration, the rhythm, the friends, a time to fulfill dreams and be who you’ve always dreamed of being, crazy and colorful days, long magical nights, the chill zone with friends in nature, all of us together in the middle of nowhere—there’s nothing more perfect than that.
We invite you to bring all your creativity and imagination inside, into the heart of it, every moment.
This is already the 18th time in total that the Imagine community is coming together to live, imagine, and celebrate together. The 18th time we’re collectively creating an alternative reality, a free autonomy, a time of soaring between endless worlds, costumes, realities, and possibilities, where you are the ones painting what’s to come.
