Sukkot 2026 in Indonesia is observed on Sabtu, 26 September 2026.
Sukkot — the "Feast of Tabernacles" — is a seven-day Jewish festival commemorating the 40-year wilderness journey of the Israelites after the Exodus. Observed by building and dwelling in temporary outdoor huts (sukkot).
Originally an agricultural festival celebrating the autumn harvest. The biblical command to dwell in sukkot (Leviticus 23:42-43) commemorates the temporary shelters of the wilderness wandering.
Building a sukkah — a temporary outdoor hut with at least three walls and a covering of natural materials. Eating, studying, and (where weather permits) sleeping in the sukkah. Waving the Four Species (lulav and etrog — palm branch, willow, myrtle, citron) during prayer. Visiting friends' sukkahs ("Sukkah-hopping").
Stuffed vegetables symbolizing harvest. Hearty stews. Round challah remaining from High Holidays. Apple and honey carries over.
