About Hanukkah
Hanukkah 2027 begins at sundown on Tuesday, December 14th, and ends at nightfall on Saturday, December 12th. The eight-night Festival of Lights is one of the most celebrated Jewish holidays.
History & Significance
Hanukkah commemorates the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem around 165 BCE after the Maccabean Revolt against the Seleucid Empire. According to the Talmud, a one-day supply of oil miraculously burned for eight days, which is why the holiday lasts eight nights.
