British singer-songwriter Boy George announced on Thursday a second concert in Israel, which will be dedicated to the survivors of the Nova Music Festival massacre.
The newly announced Nov. 7 concert will be titled “We Will Dance Again” and take place at the Menora Mivtachim Arena in Tel Aviv.
“Come and join us for a night of beautiful music, harmony, and love,” Boy George, who is not Jewish, said in a video shared by Live Nation Israel about the upcoming performance, which follows news about his sold-out Nov. 4 performance in Israel.
“We Will Dance Again” is also the name of a song the Culture Club frontman released in July in which he expressed solidarity with Israel and defended its military actions in the Gaza Strip targeting Hamas terrorists who orchestrated the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre across southern Israel. On the track, Boy George references the Hamas-led shooting spree at the Nova Music Festival and criticizes claims that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. The phrase “We Will Dance Again” has been used by Israelis and supporters of the Jewish state to express solidarity with victims of the Nova Festival terrorist attack.
When the Nov. 4 concert in Israel was first announced, the “Karma Chameleon” singer said it was “my honor to come to Israel, and I hope you will all be there to celebrate an evening of love, positivity, and good vibes.” Boy George has performed in Israel before, including in 2017 at the Menorah Arena, which featured a guest performance by Dana International.
Boy George performed in the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest with Italian artist Senhit, who represented San Marino, and ignored calls to boycott the competition over Israel’s participation. He said at the time that he would never turn his back on his Jewish friends.
