Everyone is welcome to the annual menorah lighting in Manhattan.

Experience the world's largest menorah lighting on each of Hanukkah's eight days.

This event typically takes place at the southeast corner of Central Park, at Grand Army Plaza, next to the Pulitzer Fountain and across from the famous Plaza Hotel.

The menorah is certified by Guinness World Records as the world's largest. It was designed by Israeli artist Yaacov Agam and inspired by a hand drawing by the Rambam of the original menorah in the Beis Hamikdosh in Jerusalem.
