The organizers have promoted the four-day ‘Pride Land’ festival at the Dead Sea as the region’s largest gathering of its kind
Israel is promoting a new festival called ‘Pride Land’ as the “biggest LGBTQ+ festival ever in the Middle East.” The event at the Dead Sea is billed as a four-day gathering of performances, parties, exhibitions, and queer culture.
The official Israel account on X said on Monday that the festival would bring “four days of nonstop celebration, community and connection.” The Jerusalem Post has described it as the largest festival of the kind in the region’s history.
According to the official website, ‘Pride Land’ is scheduled for July 1-4, 2026 in Ein Bokek on the Dead Sea and is being sold as a destination-style event rather than a single parade. Organizers are offering hotel-and-ticket packages, including all-access wristbands, and promoting a central events space called DOME X.
