Hanukkah
Hanukkah is the Jewish Festival of Lights, commemorating the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem after the Maccabean revolt in the 2nd century BCE; and the legend of a single day’s oil lasting eight nights. Observed with nightly candle-lighting on the menorah, alongside foods fried in oil like latkes and sufganiyot, it’s one of the most visible Jewish holidays in New York City’s public life, from giant menorah lightings in city squares to community celebrations across the boroughs. See how Hanukkah shows up across New York City, from public menorah lightings and cultural center events to the food, music, and community gatherings marking each of the holiday’s eight nights. Chag Sameach!
