What is Sukkot?
Sukkot is the week-long festival that comes straight after Yom Kippur. We eat in a sukkah, a simple outdoor hut with a roof of branches, remembering how G-d protected our ancestors in the desert.
We also shake the lulav and etrog, four plants held together, a mitzvah that brings together every kind of Jew.
Sukkot at Chabad of Surrey
At Chabad of Surrey you can sit in our sukkah, shake the lulav and enjoy a festive meal with friends.
Each year we celebrate with our Shakshuka in the Sukkah evening: delicious food, friendship and festive fun in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Everyone is welcome, whatever your background, observance or affiliation.
We serve Jewish families across West Byfleet, Byfleet, Woking, Weybridge, Guildford, Dorking, Molesey, Cobham and the rest of Surrey.
Do I need to know anything to come?
Not at all. We explain everything as we go, and there is no membership or affiliation needed.
Can I shake the lulav and etrog if I've never done it?
Yes. Just ask and we'll show you how; it takes a minute.
Can my children come?
Of course. Sukkot is a festival for the whole family.
