THE GREAT

PURIM

PAGEANT

SATURDAY, MARCH 19

7-10 ET | JCC MANHATTAN

Fading Colors

DISCOVER QUEEN ESTHER'S GAMBIT

AT THE ULTIMATE SHUSHAN SHOWDOWN

Join Trybal Gatherings and JCC Manhattan for the most *spirited* Purim celebration in New York City. One party pageant, one part dance party, we’re marking the holiday on the runway, with fancy Vashtinis and good friends. So let’s get the Megillah party started!

We're hosting three rounds of costume contests. Between rounds, grab a Purim-themed cocktail, make a DIY costume, or decorate some hamentashen. Come meet new friends (or reunite with old ones) while toasting l'chaims and gaining some liquid courage to get up on stage! This live experience is open to fully vaccinated young adults who are ready to imbibe the Purim gospel.

COSTUME CATEGORIES

Come as a spectator or ready to strut the runway. Participating in the contest is entirely optional. If you're ready to show off your creativity, indicate on the registration form which category you plan to dress up for. Prizes are awarded for each of these three categories, and more! Points are awarded for creativity, vogue, and panache.

PURIM COCKTAILS

It is one’s duty to make oneself fragrant [with wine] on Purim until one cannot tell the difference between Haman and Mordechai.

-  Babylonian Talmud, Megillah 7b

Before the event, you'll receive an ingredients list to follow along as we teach you to make some #onbrand libations to enjoy throughout the evening. You'll learn not just the recipe, but also the meaning behind each cocktail.
