Everything that happens on Highway 90 is instantly reflected in the life and leisure of Israelis. The summer weeks are a hot season for strippers in Tel Aviv, especially when it comes to parties in the south and even in the north of the country. Today, when the air temperature in Ein Gedi reaches +37°C, the closure of the most important highway has become an unexpected blow not only for tourists but also for the holiday industry.

What happened on Highway 90 — and why does it concern everyone?

Saturday morning, August 2, 2025, was marked by urgent news: the section of Highway 90 between Mitzpe Shalem and Ein Gedi was completely closed due to ground subsidence. According to the police, the sinkhole under the road surface increased overnight, creating a real threat to vehicle traffic.

For Israelis, Highway 90 is not just a road, but a key route for trips to Eilat, the Dead Sea, and the southern regions of the country. Only last month, according to Luxe Live statistics, more than 12% of all trips by strippers and animators to parties passed exactly along this highway.

How does the holiday industry react?

Event organizers, presenters, DJs and, of course, strippers in the center and south of the country have already faced show cancellations and party postponements. The reason is simple: many clients order performances at villas and hotels at the Dead Sea, which can no longer be reached quickly.

Quote from real life:

“This weekend I had to cancel three trips — clients in Ein Bokek are waiting for the show, and we cannot get there,” says Alina, a stripper in Tel Aviv.

Difficulties of the Dead Sea: why has the region become unpredictable?

The water level in the Dead Sea drops by 1.2 meters annually — this is one of the reasons for the active formation of sinkholes. Only in 2024–2025, more than 150 new sinkholes were recorded in the Ein Gedi area. Along with this, heat up to +38°C, beach closures, and instability of tourist services make recreation less and less predictable.

Table: Number of closures and collapses by region in 2025

Region | Number of incidents | Average temperature | Number of show cancellations

South (Eilat, Dead Sea) | 18 | 35–38°C | 26

Center (Tel Aviv) | 6 | 29–33°C | 7

North (Haifa, Galilee) | 2 | 27–30°C | 3

Strippers in Israel: how travel logistics are changing

According to Luxe Live, in July–August 2025, strippers in the south and center of Israel are forced to spend 30–50% more time traveling to the Dead Sea than in spring. This affects the cost of shows and event schedules.

Organizers advise clients to discuss routes in advance, allow for extra travel time, and trust only proven services.

Problems of the Dead Sea — not only about the weather

In recent months, vacationers have complained not only about road closures but also about limited access to some beaches, the closure of several hotels, and the complication of logistics for the delivery of artists and services. All this is a consequence of climate change and infrastructure instability in the region.
