About this adventure
Celebrate the Festival of Lights in the historic naval barracks district of Point Loma at Liberty Station's Central Promenade. Organized in partnership with Chabad of Downtown and Chabad Center for Jewish Life, this community celebration features the lighting of a giant custom-designed Menorah. Families can enjoy spirited live klezmer music, an energetic Hanukkah gelt drop from a fire truck, fresh hot jelly donuts (sufganiyot), and children's craft workshops. The surrounding promenade features the outdoor Rady Children's Ice Rink, spacious lawns for strollers, and artisanal food halls.
