Rosh Hashanah is just around the corner, you can already taste the honey! 🍯🍎

Rosh Hashanah this year is on Wednesday, October 2nd. Rosh HaShanah is the Jewish New Year, “Rosh” means head and “HaShanah” means the year – this is the Head of the Year! It is such an important holiday that it is celebrated for two days – it starts at sunset on Friday evening and finishes at sunset on Sunday. On Friday nights families across the country will gather for a new year meal – there are also loads of communal dinners. In Israel in particular, aside from the religious and family traditions, there are some of the best parties of the year!

To bring in the New Year, we present to you the Best Rosh Hashanah Events 2024.  Plenty of concerts and festivals, and dinners for everyone.  (Tip: If you’re interested in a Rosh Hashanah dinner, make sure to reserve ahead of time.)
