High Holidays

Our services include a mixture of in-person and livestreaming events at the Denver Botanic Gardens and online. Most events are offered both in-person and online, the primary exception being our simulcast of our High Holiday yoga which is livestream only for both Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Make sure to check out our schedule of events for detailed information on how to participate in each service.

Each in-person service will be held under our open tent at Denver Botanic Gardens, with professional livestreams of the service on a jumbo screen in the amphitheater bowl outside the tent with picnic-style seating and inside Mitchell Hall (an indoor, temperature-controlled venue with chairs). There is no reserved or guaranteed seating except for High Holiday Sponsors.

You asked and we listened – this year we are offering Yizkor and Neilah as live services which will happen in person (along with livestream) in a more intimate setting. In-person attendance for these services will be limited, so make sure to register early. The specific location details will be shared upon registration.

Creating a space where all are welcomed and included is of the utmost importance to us.

There will be many measures in place to ensure inclusion. Look for special signage or ask a volunteer for assistance if needed for all of the following access needs: Hearing, Sight, Physical Space, and Restrooms.

In an effort to continue to keep High Holidays safe and secure, expect to see a few changes implemented at this year’s services. We ask in advance for your patience, understanding, and attention to communications we share to ensure a smooth and sacred experience for all.  

For any health and safety restrictions or protocols, please check directly with the Denver Botanic Gardens. If you are experiencing symptoms of illness, please honor the health and well-being of others and consider joining us through the livestream service instead of attending in person.
