Vinfest in Taybeh
The Taybeh Vinfest, one of the most festivals in Palestinian, takes place in February annually, at the new Taybeh Winery in Palestine. Its goal is to introduce new Palestinian boutique wines to locals and internationals through a fun evening of fine wine, music, and food.
The Taybeh Vinfest, held for the first time in the village, will feature local musicians such as Nazal Zanyed with the Mina Band on Friday night. Mina Band was founded in 2009 by Emile Hani and Nazal Zanyed with numerous Palestinian musicians while they were students at Birzeit Music School. Mina Band represents traditional music from the Middle East and North Africa, which the band performs in an oriental style. They also perform Spanish music that has been rearranged to produce current fusion music.
On the night, jazz music will be performed by Joseph Dugmaq, a saxophone teacher at the Edward Said National Music Conservatory, and Mohammed Qutati. The Taybeh Vinfest, an annual wine festival in cold weather, will establish a new tradition based on the idea of promoting a boutique Palestinian wine with amazing local music and distinctive art. The amazing artworks of Nabil Anani and Tayseer Barakat are still on display in the stunning foyer of the new Taybeh Golden Hotel. The combination of outstanding wines, music, and art will create a nice atmosphere for anyone to enjoy.
