Statement : Ghalia Ben Ali concert report


>> Postponement of Ghalia Benali's "Jinan" Concert with the Tunisian National Orchestra


Following the recent tragic and violent acts that occured in Palestine, the Ministry of Cultural Affairs has decided to close the doors of institutions under its tutelage, including the City of Culture. As a result, the closing concert of this 2023 edition, "Jinan" by Ghalia Benali in collaboration with the Tunis Opera Theatre, scheduled tonight, October 8, 2023, will not be able to take place.


However, we firmly believe that culture is not just entertainment. It is a form of commitment, resistance and solidarity. As the Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwich put it: 

"On this earth there is that which deserves life:

On this earth there is the lady of the land,

The mother of beginnings, the mother of endings.

It used to be called Palestine, it will be called Palestine.

My lady : I deserve, because you are my lady, I deserve life" 


Inspired by these words, we decided to postpone the concert to a later date, and we would like to shed light on our solidarity with the Palestinian people.
