Menorah Lighting at the Capitol with Governor Polis and other dignitaries

Join Governor Polis, State Government representatives and the wider Denver Community for the annual Chanukah Menorah lighting on the West Steps. 

As the Jewish holiday of light, Chanukah is a celebration of that which we hold most dear to us. Here in the United States, we are blessed to live in a country that truly values the right to religious freedom, a right that the public Menorah lighting celebrates with joy and festivity. 

Join us for an evening of community unity, pride and light with food and fun for all ages, including a giant Menorah, formal addresses from State Government officials, a breathtaking fire show, Superhero breakdancers, delicious, BBQ, live DJ, doughnuts, chocolate Chanukah coins and more!
