According to the flyers there are special buses from jerusalem.

If not then get a 167 bus to Efrat.

Drop an email to yfishman@gmail.com the organiser of teh concert and he will tell you.

See you there iyH ! !

Yechiel is the organiser and his email is yfishman@gmail.com

The bus takes about an hour and stops near where the concert is (the road nearest will be closed to traffic anyway.) ask on the bus for directions to the concert. it is near Orot Yehuda School in the Teena

(probably the last stop tomorrow)

You should be ok witht eh 6pm bus...

probably about 80sh.

Or go to Gilo and take tremps.

it should take about 35 minutes.

Tell him to go in to the southern gate, and get out at teh first roundabout. You will have to walk from there.

There is no set seating, and the ticket is for a certain area only. (best tickets get the area nearerthe stage. Tickets like mine are at teh sides and away from the stage)

Bring a sweater - it can be quite chilly at night in the Gush

It is not 10 minutes... unless he is a helicopter.
Maybe 15 minutes from Gilo.
If not traffic allow 25-30 minutes.

Make sure he goes to the southern gate of Efrat. (passes Neve Daniel and Elazar and turns left at the traffic light)

I dont think so...no arabs ... they just lack what I call "bedside manner"
