Witness the grand illumination of the world's largest Hanukkah menorah as the sun dips below the horizon during the Jewish Festival of Lights. Grand Army Plaza in Midtown and Brooklyn have been competing for the esteemed title since the 1980s, boasting towering 32-foot-high steel menorahs, each weighing a substantial 4,000 pounds. The festivities begin at 5:30pm on every night of Hannukah and include live music and dancing. With free access for every lighting and Midtown's Grand Army Plaza just down the block from the hotel, it's the perfect place to celebrate the holiday.
