Expo Tel Aviv (formerly the Israel Trade Fairs and Convention Center and later the Tel Aviv Convention Center, although commonly referred to locally as Exhibition Gardens and also as the Tel Aviv Fairgrounds) is a site located on
Rokach Boulevard in northern
Tel Aviv . It serves as a venue for a variety of events, including
concerts , exhibitions,
trade fairs and conferences.
Established in 1932 as “Yarid HaMizrach” at the site of the Levant Fair beside the Tel Aviv Port , the fairgrounds were moved to their present location at 101 Rokach Boulevard (near the Yarkon Park and Tel Aviv University ) in 1959. In this location the site is directly accessible from the Ayalon Highway , Tel Aviv’s main transportation artery, as well as from the Tel Aviv University railway station .
