Family, friends and food are three of life’s most important things. Let’s celebrate them!
Let’s get ready for… Purim!
Purim is a joyous celebration of the survival of the Jewish people, and the downfall of those who wish to harm us. We recount the tale of Esther and Mordechai, and their victory over the wicked Haman, in Ancient Persia.
In 2026, Purim begins on the evening of Monday March 2 and continues until nightfall on March 3.
It is traditional to eat celebratory foods, and to share Mishloach Manot – gifts of food and drink – with friends.
