About Sukkot

Sukkot (also spelled Succot or Succos) is a week-long Jewish harvest festival that typically falls in September or October. Key traditions include:

  • Building a sukkah — A temporary outdoor structure decorated with natural materials where families eat meals and sometimes sleep during the holiday
  • The Four Species (Arba Minim) — Waving the lulav (palm branch), etrog (citron), hadassim (myrtle), and aravot (willow) during prayer services
  • Festive meals — Elaborate holiday dinners with family and guests in the sukkah
  • Chol HaMoed — The intermediate days of the holiday when outings and family trips are traditional and encouraged
  • Simchat Torah — The joyous celebration at the end of Sukkot marking the completion of the annual Torah reading cycle

Many offer Sukkot services, communal sukkah meals, and can help with lulav and etrog sets. We recommend reaching out to local congregations before your trip to arrange holiday services and supplies.
