Israel Railways is preparing for significant crowds expected at the upcoming NEXT concert series at Ramat Gan Stadium, scheduled from October 8 to 22. To manage the influx of thousands of attendees, the company will enhance service at the nearby Bnei Brak station.
Following the concerts, additional "full and go" trains will operate based on demand and the events' conclusion times. Some regular train routes will be extended, and standby trains will be available for activation if needed. These special services will depart from Bnei Brak station, heading north to Nahariya, and south to Ashkelon and Be'er Sheva, as well as to Herzliya via the Sharon stations.
Security personnel, ushers, and managers will be present at stations to handle the crowds and ensure an orderly departure of concertgoers. On Thursdays, October 8 and 15, trains heading north will terminate at Haifa Hof HaCarmel station due to light rail construction work. Shuttle services will be provided from Haifa Hof HaCarmel for onward travel.
Israel Railways advises concert attendees to arrive at stations early, follow staff instructions, and check their travel routes in advance. They also recommend considering a daily travel pass for potential cost savings and reduced waiting times.
