The story of Hanukkah as told in Epcot by Zachary the Storyteller

Hanukkah, the “Festival of Lights,” is an eight-day celebration honoring the trials and tribulations that the Jewish people living in Israel face in 166 B.C.E.

Here Zachary, the storyteller, not only retells the story of Hanukkah, but explains how it is celebrated around the globe. Many countries have their own set of traditions. In Yemen, on the seventh night, it is considered the daughters festival, a celebration of Jewish women.

The festival takes place starting the night of Dec. 2 through Dec. 10, 2018.
