Givat Haviva, was established in 1949 as the educational center of the National Kibbutz and as a place that promotes reconciliation, coexistence and creativity between Jews and Arabs. It is the home of the festival since 2016. A beautiful and spacious green village, full of lawns, natural shade, trees, flowers, large halls, guest rooms, a pleasant, rural kibbutz with a pastoral atmosphere and the perfect home for our festival. It is important to note that we are taking the entire campus, which means that during the festival no other activities take place there.

As well as the large auditorium where the exotic performances take place at noon.
