The biggest concert in quarantine - 5,000 people in Tel Aviv

An estimated crowd of 3,000 people attended a concert in Tel Aviv on Thursday, which was among the first large live music gatherings since the global industry shut down in March amid the coronavirus pandemic, Times of Israel reports. The cultural protest event was staged in support of crew members who rely solely on live music concerts for their livelihood. It had the backing of the Israeli Police and the city of Tel Aviv, and it was against the Israeli government for the ongoing shutdown of live events.
