– hours– minutes

Starts at sunset onMonday, March 22, 2027

Purim falls on 14 Adar and begins at sunset the evening before: 22 March 2027 and 11 March 2028.

This year's date has passed. Counting down to the next one.

Purim is the most playful day of the Jewish year: costumes, the Megillah reading, gifts of food to friends and a festive meal. In Jerusalem it is celebrated a day later, on Shushan Purim.

Costumes for children sell out in the week before, and mishloach manot need assembling the day before. Two reminders.
