Sukkot in Byron Shire
The Big Sukkah of Byron Shire
A celebration of joy, unity, and Hashem's loving embrace.
A Home Beneath the Stars
Nestled among the trees of Mullumbimby, our large community sukkah comes to life each year, welcoming families, locals, visitors, backpackers, and travelers from around the world.
Throughout the festival, people gather beneath its shelter to share festive meals, sing together, reconnect with friends, and celebrate the joy of Sukkot in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Surrounded by nature and open skies, the sukkah reminds us of Hashem's loving embrace that surrounds and protects us wherever we may be.

A Festival of Joy
There is something special about the atmosphere of Sukkot in Byron Shire. Guests arrive from near and far, conversations flow easily, children play together, and the sukkah fills with laughter, song, and celebration.
"Open skies above, friends around the table, and the joy of celebrating together."
Whether joining for a meal, stopping by for a visit, or sharing a l'chaim with new friends, everyone is welcomed as part of the community.
The Four Species
The Four Species—Lulav, Etrog, Hadassim, and Aravot—are available throughout the holiday, giving everyone the opportunity to participate in this special mitzvah.
Visitors often enjoy learning about the meaning behind the Four Species and taking part in this timeless tradition that has united Jewish communities for generations.
Sukkah on Wheels
Not everyone can come to the sukkah, so each year the sukkah goes to them.
Our Sukkah on Wheels travels throughout Byron Shire, visiting homes, businesses, parks, travelers, and community members across the region, bringing the joy of Sukkot wherever Jews may be found.
For many people, it is a memorable opportunity to shake the Lulav and Etrog, enjoy a treat in the sukkah, and connect with Jewish life right where they are.
