Tower of David Night Shows 2023-2024 in Jerusalem

The Tower of David, a significant landmark of Jerusalem, is one of the most popular historical sites, offering a glimpse into the history of Israel. Towering over the city of Jerusalem, the structure has been a long-standing symbol of fortitude and a remnant of the past. Now, the Tower hosts a multitude of events, ranging from museum tours to educational visits and of course, night shows. Stunning spectaculars about King David and Jerusalem history are worth staying up for.

King David Night Show

King David has always been a special character in Israeli history. Now, he has become the focus of a spectacular night show that is both educational and breathtaking. The event is held at the Tower of David Museum, where a light show is projected on the walls of the citadel in the evening. The Tower of David museum show brings a modern and artistic perspective to biblical history.

The show features 20 powerful laser projectors, 10 audio players, 14 speakers, amplifiers, and 6 miles (10 km) of cable infrastructure—all of which are operated by cutting-edge technology. The show tells the life story of King David, from his youth as a shepherd to his coronation as a king over Israel. You will experience a great light and sound show, hear psalm songs attributed to David, and listen to modern songs of praise dedicated to Jerusalem and its king.

For an additional fee, you can enjoy the King David VIP experience, which includes a glass of wine and a complimentary gift. The souvenir changes depending on the season: you might receive a blanket in winter and a tote bag in the summer.

The Night Spectacular

The Night Spectacular is another laser show that is displayed at the Tower of David. It is focused on the history of Jerusalem and its cultural role in the world. The show features animation, advanced graphic design, and various editing methods. It creates a three-dimensional experience that makes you feel as though the pictures on the walls have come to life. Spectators truly feel like participants throughout this event. Same as with the King David show, there is also a VIP option, offering some wine and a gift.

Relaxed Night Experiences

Relaxed Experiences is a performance model specifically developed for those with special needs. The goal of this is to make the night shows accessible to everyone, including those with disabilities. If you or your loved one need some time to decompress or experience any issues, you can do so in a separately organized room. Soundproofing headphones, audio voiceover and seating is also provided during this event. Relaxed Night Experiences take place at 8 pm on the first Wednesday of each month.
