In 2014, Tel Aviv’s White City Shabbat set the GUINNESS WORLD RECORD® for the largest Shabbat dinner in history with 2,226 guests. The following year, Berlin edged ahead with 2,322. As the second largest Jewish city on the planet, New York can do better.

On November 21, 2025, The Temple Emanu-El Streicker Centers will welcome 3,000 people of all ages to enjoy a delicious Shabbat meal, vibrant music, rich tradition . . . and claim the GUINNESS WORLD RECORD® for largest Shabbat dinner in history.

Whether you’re cultural, spiritual, (un)affiliated, or just curious, join us for a historic night in New York City. Break bread, break the record, and come together as one proud community.
