Is Hanukkah celebrated also in the Synagogue?
-
Hanukkah is often celebrated at homes with the complete family. Is Hanukkah also celebrated in the synagogues? And who celebrate it in the synagogue, Rabbis, Jews or both?
-
Answer:
Rabbis ARE Jews. By definition. Usually, it's a party, not a service, and the synagogue simply acts as extended family, having a bigger party than anything done in most people's homes. And, yeah, EVERYONE goes. And many shuls have the kids in the religious school do some sort of presentation...either singing songs, or putting on a play, or both.

It varies by congregation and by branch of Judaism, but there are often special activities in a synagogue around Channukah, including parties, celebrations, mass lightings of chanukiah, and the like. It's less likely that there will be a special service, although on the Shabbat just before Channukah there may be special readings, such as the Haftorah from Zecchariah. Who celebrates? The members of the congregation, which would include the rabbi, cantor and other Jews.
