Israel's annual "Cinema Day" is set to return on Thursday, November 12, 2026, offering the public a wide selection of Israeli, Hollywood, and international films for a special price of just 10 shekels per ticket. The initiative, led by the Israel Cinema Association, aims to encourage shared outings for families and film enthusiasts by making the big screen experience accessible.
The event will feature dozens of titles, ranging from current blockbusters to special premiere screenings. Israeli cinema will have a prominent role, showcasing notable films such as "The Jester," a special national premiere from Gidi Dar and Shuli Rand; "Independence," Moshe Rosenthal's acclaimed film and Israel's Oscar submission; and Avi Nesher's new work, "Our Loves."
Alongside local productions, international films and family-friendly blockbusters will be screened, including "How to Rob a Bank," "Shrek," "Scrooge," "The Fugitive," "Wild Forest," "Tomorrow Will Be Better," "Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris," and "Ramina."
Dani Kfir, CEO of the Israel Cinema Association, expressed enthusiasm for the event, stating, "There's no such thing as too many Cinema Days! We are happy to invite the Israeli public to celebrate their love for cinema with us." He highlighted the rich selection of films and the opportunity to enjoy the magic of the big screen at a symbolic price.
This event follows a recent "Israeli Cinema Day" held on October 14, 2026, which focused solely on Israeli productions. Due to the significant success of these initiatives, the association has decided to hold such high-attendance days multiple times a year, with another "Israeli Cinema Day" dedicated to honoring local filmmaking having occurred in June.
