The legendary NuRoots Hanukkah party. Join us in Miracle Mile to kick off Infinite Light with a celebration sparkling with Jewish pride.
A live band will get us started before a D.J. takes over, spinning all your favorite songs to dance to. Dive into dreidel truth or dare. Snap memories in our photobooth. Nosh at our taco bar. See dazzling magic up close. Walk away with a beautiful henna design. And feel the Jewish joy turned all the way up. We’ll pause for a communal menorah lighting moment and send you home with swag and gelt. Old faces, new friends. You never know who you’re going to meet.
Infinite Light returns December 14–22, celebrating Hanukkah with eight days of in-person events and experiences. Bringing together L.A.’s diverse and inclusive community of young adults in their 20s and 30s and made in partnership with visionary organizations and co-creators, NuRoots’ festivals have become citywide traditions.

They’re back — and they’ve still got it.
Join us for a one-night-only throwback Shabbat led by Rabbi Mark Borovitz and Yeshaia Blakeney, returning to the bimah to bring that old-school magic you’ve missed. Expect soulful stories, spirited song, and the kind of raw, real Shabbat energy that made you fall in love with Friday nights in the first place.
Whether you were part of the crew “back in the day” or just love a soulful service with a side of nostalgia — this is your night.
Come for the prayers. Stay for the laughter, reconnections, and the unfiltered spirit of two spiritual giants who know how to bring the house down.
Calling all past admirers, seekers, and fans of the OG crew — it’s time to come home (just for the night)
