Israeli Stars Including Omer Adam and Rita to Perform at NEXT 2026 Hanukkah Concert
The production team behind the NEXT 2026 concert announced the full lineup of Israeli singers set to perform at the large-scale event during the upcoming Hanukkah holiday. The show will feature prominent artists such as Osher Cohen, Oudia, Ben Tzur, Omer Adam, Idan Amadi, and Rita sharing the stage. NEXT has become an iconic annual musical event in Israel, uniting top music stars in a unique live experience.
Last year, the NEXT concert series sold nearly 250,000 tickets, making it the most successful music event in Israeli history. NEXT 2026 promises exclusive collaborations and special arrangements of the artists' hits and timeless classics, performed with a 360-degree stage setup, a live band, and professional dancers to create a full and emotional musical evening for the Israeli audience.
Among the performers, Osher Cohen has risen to become one of Israel's leading singers, while Oudia gained massive popularity with her recent album "Hashem Ya'azor." Omer Adam, known internationally for his Mediterranean pop, will bring his hits to the stage. Idan Amadi, who recently recovered from injuries sustained in the Gaza conflict, will continue his musical career with this event. Veteran singer Rita and Ben Tzur will complete the lineup.
Ticket sales dates for NEXT 2026 will be announced soon. Last year, the concerts took place in two venues: Pais Arena in Jerusalem starting December 9 and Menora Mivtachim Arena in Tel Aviv starting December 14. Over 160,000 tickets were sold within a week last year, reflecting the event's huge demand. Further details on dates, locations, and prices are expected shortly from the production team.
