Hanukkah, the Jewish festival of rededication 🕎
Chanukah for Hebrew Year 5787 begins at sundown on Friday, 4 December 2026 and ends at nightfall on Saturday, 12 December 2026.
Hanukkah (Hebrew: ×—Ö²× Ö»×›Ö¼Ö¸×”, also romanized as Chanukah or Chanuka), also known as the Festival of Lights, is an eight-day Jewish holiday commemorating the Maccabean Revolt against the Seleucid Empire in the 2nd century BCE, during which the Maccabees recaptured Jerusalem and rededicated the Second Temple. Hanukkah is observed for eight nights and days, starting on the 25th day of Kislev according to the Hebrew calendar, which may occur at any time from late November to late December in the Gregorian calendar. Each evening, an additional candle is lit on a nine-branched menorah called a hanukkiah, beginning with one candle on the first night and reaching all eight by the final night.
