Purim in Tel Aviv
If you’ve never spent Purim in Tel Aviv, you aren’t ready. Everyone is in costume: the bus driver, the barista, the CEO.
The energy is frantic, loud, and incredible for several days in a row. It’s the one time of year this city completely loses its mind in the best possible way.

The 126 Vibe
At 126, we bridge the gap. We do the tradition right (loud singing, megillah readings, tzedakah collections), and then we party harder than anyone else. Whether you are looking for a massive rave, a family lunch, or just a place to hear the megillah with a great atmosphere, this is home base.

Here’s what we have lined up for Purim 2026:

This is it. The legendary party everyone talks about. We take over Hangar 11 at the port for the biggest Jewish party in the city. We’re talking thousands of people, top-tier DJs, and an energy you can’t describe. You just have to be there.
We produce this event, so you know the crowd will be exactly what you’re looking for.
We’ll start with the main Megillah reading in Shul. Expect it to be packed with 500+ people —both the main shul and the gallery will be full, loud, and full of energy.
After that – Immediately after the reading, we head upstairs for the after-party.

Women’s Megillah Reading
We run two dedicated women’s readings on Purim night. We know schedules are tight, so we do them back-to-back with a 30-minute break in between. It’s a focused environment — perfect if you want to hear every word clearly. Come for the reading, then head upstairs to join the party.

Join us for the morning minyan and Megillah reading. It’s efficient, it’s spirited, and it gets you out in time to enjoy the rest of the holiday. Expect great energy, a strong crowd, and a full Purim vibe. 🎭📜

Purim isn’t just about the parties. It’s about community. Every year, a group from 126 heads to Ichilov Hospital to hand out Mishloach Manot (gift baskets) to patients and staff. It’s a chance to bring some of that insane Purim energy to people who really need it.
We meet directly at the hospital. Bring great costumes and good vibes.
There will be a Megillah reading taking place at the end of the volunteering at 12:00 in the main lobby of the new building, next to the piano.

We’ve got the families covered, too. On Purim day, we host a full sit-down seudah (festive meal). We’ll have entertainment for the kids, plenty of food, and a great atmosphere for the parents. It’s chaos, but joyous, organized chaos.
After the party and Seuda, at around 11:45 there will be a Kriyat Megilah followed by Mincha.
