In late 2022, various religious authorities banned girls from local Jewish schools from attending the event, and the Vaad L'maan Tohar Machneinu ("group for the purity of our camp") branch of the Union of Orthodox Hebrew Congregations (UOHC) stated they "[endorse] and [support] this decision" to ban the concert, citing fears of "spiritual harm in ruchniyus [spirituality] and hashkafa [Jewish ethos]".
