1960 Israel Song Festival
The 1960 Israel Song Festival was the 1st edition of the annual Israel Song Festival. It took place in Tel Aviv and was held at Heichal HaTarbut on 2 May 1960 as part of the 1960 Independence Day celebrations. The show was hosted by Itzhak Shimoni.

Nine songs were selected to participate in the competition. Each song was performed twice on the night, once by a male singer and once by female singer, in order to give precedence to the song over the performing artist.

The winning song was "Erev Ba" (Evenfall; ), which was written by Oded Avisar and composed by Arie Levanon and was performed by Aliza Kashi and by Shimon Bar.
