Hanukkah Celebration at Downtown Summerlin returns on December 6th, 2026 for an evening community gathering in celebration of Hanukkah. Jewish Nevada currently lists the event as Light the Menorah, taking place from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM at Downtown Summerlin.
The annual celebration brings the Las Vegas Jewish community together at the outdoor shopping and dining district in Summerlin. Downtown Summerlin and Jewish Nevada have partnered on the Hanukkah gathering for several years, with the menorah lighting serving as the centerpiece of the event.
Light the Menorah at Downtown Summerlin
The 2026 community calendar currently confirms the date, time and Downtown Summerlin location, while the complete program is still listed as to be announced. Additional details about the exact menorah-lighting time and this year’s entertainment and activities are expected closer to the event.
Previous Downtown Summerlin Hanukkah celebrations have included a community menorah lighting along with entertainment and children’s activities. Those past activities provide context for the annual event, but the complete 2026 lineup has not yet been confirmed.
A Community Hanukkah Celebration
The event is organized as a community gathering rather than a religious service, making it accessible to families, friends and community members who want to celebrate Hanukkah together.
In previous years, Jewish Nevada’s Downtown Summerlin celebration has included family activities, music, jelly donuts, hot cocoa and other seasonal programming. Visitors should check the current event information closer to December before assuming those individual activities will return this year.
Spend the Evening at Downtown Summerlin
Downtown Summerlin offers restaurants, coffee shops, retailers and entertainment within walking distance of the event area. Families can easily arrive before the celebration or stay afterward for dinner and other holiday activities around the property.
For ideas on where to eat during your visit, see our Downtown Summerlin restaurant guide, which covers dining options throughout the shopping district.
Parking at Downtown Summerlin
Downtown Summerlin has multiple surface parking areas and parking garages throughout the property. Complimentary valet service is also available at select locations, including The Dining Arroyo, although availability can vary during busy holiday periods.
Because December is one of Downtown Summerlin’s busiest periods for holiday events, visitors may want to allow additional time for parking and walking to the event area.
The 2026 event listing currently confirms the December 6th date and 4:00 PM–6:00 PM schedule, but admission and registration details have not yet been published. Additional information is expected as the event approaches.
