Hanukkah Party
A Hanukkah party will bring family and friends together for a holiday calibration. Hanukkah, the "dedication" and "The Festival of Lights", is a Jewish festival which begins on the Hebrew date of the 25th of Kislev and lasts eight days, through the 2nd of Tevet. Hanukkah commemorates the victory of the Maccabees (led by Judah) over the Hellenistic Syrians in a revolt that took place around 165 BCE. The most important Hanukkah ritual is the candle lighting. Hanukkah Decorations like blue and white streamers and balloons will fit a Hanukkah Theme party.
