Who says Jews can’t celebrate Christmas sZN?
Prepare to join a virtual party unlike any other! With movie theaters and Chinese food restaurants closed, Trybal is here to bring you the festive magic of the holiday season with a Jewish twist… all from the comfort of your couch. We’re thrilled to introduce The Holiday Party: a fanciful evening of Party Rooms, meeting new people, and hygge.
Join us as we trade black tie attire for cozy holiday sweaters (yes, they’re included!) and swap "oy" for "joy!". This interactive, choose-your-own-adventure is designed for you and 300 perfect strangers. So register before tickets sell out!
THE PARTY HOSTS
Join distinguished leaders for an experiential celebration that allows you to explore a new hobby, pick up a new skill, and meet incredible people right in your virtual backyard. You’ll walk away with inspiration and a community that transcends beyond the screen. And, maybe, just maybe… a paper plate award and some Oprah-style giveaways.

Whose Holiday is it Anyway?

Turn those "ho ho hos" into "ha ha has" in this interactive, holiday-themed improv workshop, where your wild ideas and playfulness will guide the story.
