Tel Aviv EAT Festival Returns for Its 10th Edition

Israel’s Largest Food Festival Brings Four Days of Culinary Celebration to the Mediterranean Coast

Tel Aviv EAT Festival returns this May for its 10th edition, transforming the beachfront lawns of Charles Clore Park into an open-air celebration of food, culture and city life.

Taking place from May 11–14, the festival brings together some of Tel Aviv’s most sought-after restaurants, chef-led kitchens, street food stalls and live music performances, all alongside Tel Aviv’s beautiful Mediterranean sunsets. 

Widely considered Israel’s largest food festival, Tel Aviv EAT offers visitors the chance to experience the city’s renowned culinary scene in one location and at accessible prices. Restaurants that are often booked weeks in advance will serve signature dishes alongside emerging chefs, local flavors, international cuisines and unique culinary collaborations created especially for the festival. 

Beyond food, the festival reflects the spirit of Tel Aviv itself — creative, open, vibrant and constantly evolving. After a challenging period for Israel, the event also aims to offer a shared public space focused on culture, community and celebration.  

“Tel Aviv EAT is much more than a culinary event,” the municipality said ahead of the opening. “It reflects the Tel Aviv spirit that continues to innovate, create and celebrate life even during challenging times. Especially now, we choose to gather together by the sea and make room for joy, flavors and human connection.”

Visitors can expect sunset dining by the beach, dozens of restaurants and food trucks, large hospitality areas, live performances and a wide range of culinary experiences throughout the four-day festival.
