Matisyahu has confirmed his annual Festival of Light Hannukah celebration. Though the Festival of Light has been one of Matisyahu’s signature offerings since his early days as a performer, he has focused on select markets in recent years. This year, he will expand the outing exponentially.

The run of shows will kick off in Kansas City, MO on December 1 and come to a close in Miami Beach, FL on December 19. Along the way, Matis will make stops in Milwaukee, WI (12/3), St. Louis, MO (12/5), Skokie, IL (12/7), Cincinnati, OH (12/8), Washington, DC (12/10), Brooklyn, NY (12/12-13), Wilmington, DE (12/14), Richmond, VA (12/15), Atlanta, GA (12/16) and Orlando, FL (12/17). In Skokie, IL, Matisyahu will offer both early and late shows.

In a note he explained, “I am happy to announce we are taking our annual Festival of Light beyond NYC and Miami in 2026. This year we pop off in KC and run it all the way down to Miami, playing 15 (yud, hey) shows in 14 cities. Let’s go! Find the good point, unlock the potential, and become whole with the full band (5) as we blaze the lights of the purest oil, sealed by the High Priest and dance in the vineyards towards our destiny. Fan the flame in the Name of Judah, from the line of King David.”
