Jewish Trivia Quiz: Chanukkah 2025

December 15, 2025

MELVILLE, New York — Jews around the world are gathering together to light the menorah in celebration of Chanukkah, the festival of lights. Even in difficult times, we are strengthened by the words of Anne Frank, who wrote, “At such moments I don’t think about all the misery, but about the beauty that still remains.”

With that in mind, we will eat latkes and sufganiyot, we will play dreidel games, and we will light the eight candles as we remember the miracle of the oil in the Temple. And as we celebrate with these annual traditions, Jews are always looking for a new angle to bring additional joy to this holiday, even in simply finding the best new names for the old celebrations! Which of the following are actual Chanukkah celebrations that will be taking place this week?

A. Chanukah Pajamakah Havdalah and Chanukah Extravaganzukah.

‍B. The Matzo Ball and The Jazzukkah Project.

‍C. Cirque Du Chanukah and Hakuna Ma-Hanukkah.

‍D. Latkes Shmatkes and Laugh Your Latkes Off.

‍E. Hanukkah, Shmanukkah and Hannukcon.
