This
coming
weekend (December 6-7, 2019) the Jacob’s Ladder Winter Festival will be
taking
place again, now in its 43rd year! You might want to consider joining
us.
We
have been
attending this lovely festival together since we first met back in
2006,
performing at almost every one of them.
In
the winter
festival, we have a traditional slot - a lyrics-projected 60s &
70s Sing
Along, and it's loads of fun! Check out the two clips below.
But
just last
month, we got some terribly sad news. This is the post that we heard
about it
from:

To
All the
Lovely People who have been coming to Jacob’s Ladder Spring Festival
throughout
the years,
We
have sad
news.?
After
examining
the situation in every direction possible, we have come to a
heartbreaking
decision that we want to share with you.
Because
of the
huge expenses that continue to rise each year, the overwhelming
bureaucracy and
all the risks involved, (Security / Safety / Climate change / Competing
events
/ Issues with Police and service providers to name a few…) we will no
longer be
able to hold Jacob’s Ladder Spring Festival.
We
thank you
all for being part of our life’s work and passion and for continuing to
participate even though we have had to keep on raising the ticket
prices.
On
December
6-7th we will be holding the last Jacob’s Winter Festival at Nof
Ginosar Hotel
and we have the most AMAZING program. See www.jlfestival.com
If
the festival
is a success (we sell enough tickets) we will continue the Winter
Festival the
following year at the Pastoral Hotel at Kfar Blum January 8-9, 2021.
The
Pastoral is a beautiful hotel surrounded by green countryside in the
Upper
Galilee. They have wonderful halls and stages and a huge welcoming
lobby and
other great advantages.??
If
you ordered
rooms at Nof Ginosar for the June 2020 festival, please call to cancel.
We
would love it if at the same time you would order a room and join us
for the
last Winter Festival at Nof Ginosar. There are only 50 rooms left, so
decide
quickly. Telephone for orders 04.6700320
If
you want to
join us at the Winter Festival and you are looking for different
accommodation,
please call us and we will try to help you. 04.6850403. It is also
possible to
buy a day ticket.
Camping
is
allowed in the Winter in the wooded area, 80 NIS per tent, to be paid
to the
Hotel Reception. If you are two or more people in a tent this is an
economical
way of staying overnight. (It is also warmer.

So
yes, the
winter festival is taking place – and as far as we understand, next
year’s winter
festival will also be happening. In any case, it would be great if you
could join
us this weekend. Check it out: www.jlfestival.com.
