English · 1 newsroom

Halloween celebrations, including trick-or-treating and costume parades, are gaining significant popularity in Tel Aviv, with "All Neighbors' Night" being a major community event. Over 1,200 residents participated in the festivities around Dubnov Street and Rabin Square on Saturday evening. Organizers like Michal Zamir highlight the event's role in fostering community spirit and providing moments of normalcy amidst security tensions. The tradition, which started small eight years ago, has grown into a neighborhood-wide celebration, distinct from but complementary to Jewish holidays like Purim.
