Happy Hanukkah! December 14-22, 2025

Hanukkah — also spelled Chanukah or other transliterations from Hebrew — is Judaism’s “festival of lights.” On eight consecutive nightfalls, Jews gather with family and friends to light one additional candle in the menorah — a multibranched candelabra. This year, Hanukkah starts at sundown on Sunday, Dec. 14, and lasts through Dec. 22.
