"Hora" (Hebrew script: הורה, English translation: "Hora") was the Israeli entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1982, performed in Hebrew by Avi Toledano.

The song is a moderately up-tempo number, with Toledano singing about the joy he feels in seeing parts of his country and dancing the traditional "Hora" folk dance.

The song was performed fifteenth on the night (following Yugoslavia's Aska with "Halo, Halo" and preceding the Netherlands' Bill van Dijk with "Jij En Ik"). At the close of voting, it had received 100 points, placing 2nd in a field of 18.

It was succeeded as Israeli representative at the 1983 Contest by Ofra Haza with "Khay".
