Chanukah on Ice NYC is back at Wollman Rink!

(December –, 2022)—

From its inception in 2008, Chanukah on Ice NYC has become a treasured holiday tradition for Jewish families in Central Park’s beautiful Wollman Rink.

Chabad Family Programs is once again hosting Chanukah on Ice NYC, on the 2nd night of Chanukah, Monday, December 19, 2022.

“Chanukah on Ice NYC is an opportunity for Jewish families to celebrate together the joyous and positive messages of the holiday,” Sarah Alevsky, coordinator of Chanukah on Ice NYC explains, “ and particularly now when being Jewish can seem scary and fraught to our kids, it feels really important to host a party that is an unapologetic celebration of who we are.”

Skaters will enjoy the experience of skating to the sounds of Chanukah festive music, together with the signature Dreidel mascots spinning on the ice.

At 7:30 pm the giant ice Menorah carved by ice artisan Bill Bywater will be lit in a moving ceremony. Israeli Olympic skater Hailey Kops will be on hand to help light the Menorah, and Ta Shma orchestra will bring their live music to the celebration as everyone will join in to sing the traditional blessings and prayers.

Skate rental and complimentary kosher food and beverages are included in the admission fee.

TIME: 6 -9 p.m., Monday, December 19, 2022.

PLACE: Wollman Rink in Central Park, in NYC, located near the 59th or Central Park South entrances.
