Join the Jewish community in Chicago for the annual Menorah Lighting Ceremony. This grand event celebrates the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, one of the most widely celebrated holidays in the world. The ceremony is held in Daley Plaza, the picturesque heart of downtown Chicago. The Menorah lighting ceremony is a traditional ritual that symbolizes the miracle of the oil that burned for eight days in the Temple. The event features live music, performances by local dance troupes, and a range of delicious Kosher food options. Visitors can also participate in the traditional game of dreidel and indulge in scrumptious Hanukkah treats such as latkes and sufganiyot. Mayor Lori Lightfoot and other city leaders will participate in the ceremony, which will begin at 4:30 pm. Families and individuals from all walks of life are invited to be part of this joyous event, which brings together the Jewish community and strengthens ties with the wider city. This year, the Menorah Lighting Ceremony promises to be a spectacular affair, filled with festive cheer, music, and colorful lights that dazzle the crowds gathering to celebrate the holiday spirit.
