Passover 2027 will begin in the evening of Wednesday, April 21 and ends in the evening of Thursday, April 29
The eight-day Jewish holiday of Passover is celebrated in the early spring, from the 12th through the 20th of the Hebrew month of Nissan, April 21 – 29, 2027. Passover (Pesach) commemorates the emancipation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. Pesach is observed by avoiding leaven, and highlighted by the Seder meals that include four cups of wine, eating matzah and bitter herbs, and retelling the story of the Exodus.
In Hebrew it is known as Pesach (which means “to pass over”), because God passed over the Jewish homes when killing the Egyptian firstborn on the very first Passover eve.
