Suzanne Dellal Center
What is there to do at Suzanne Dellal
First and foremost, the Suzanne Dellal is home to contemporary dance. Check if there's a performance during your stay because this is the place that put Israeli dance on the global map. In 2010, the Suzanne Dellal was awarded the Israel Prize, Israel’s highest honor, for its work in pushing the boundaries of artistic dance.
But dance isn’t all you’ll find at the Suzanne Dellal Center. It also offers a range of concerts, plays, and lectures on the performing arts. You might find an art exhibition in the plaza or the lobby of the center, or a visiting international dance troupe performing in one of the many theaters.
Don’t forget to admire the building itself, both in the bright sunshine and lit up by floodlights at night. The Suzanne Dellal Center was created out of existing buildings that had fallen into disrepair. Instead of demolishing them, architects carefully renovated the old buildings, preserving their impressive facade while completely rebuilding the inner space.
Today, the building, plaza, and gardens of the Suzanne Dellal Center are among Tel Aviv’s finest public spaces. It’s an ideal spot to rest and enjoy a coffee while the fountain plays in the background.
Don’t miss: A performance by the Inbal Dance Theater, located on the Suzanne Dellal campus, which celebrates and preserves Yemenite culture.
