Shabbat Dinner at Chabad Nice
Nice, France
About This Activity
Chabad houses worldwide host Friday night Shabbat dinners for travelers — a communal meal with candle lighting, kiddush, challah, and home-cooked food. The Nice Chabad welcomes visitors of all backgrounds and observance levels. Contact them in advance through chabad.org to confirm timing and location. Dinners typically start at candle-lighting time (varies seasonally) and run 2–3 hours. There is no charge, though donations are appreciated. It's a genuine way to connect with Jewish life in France and meet fellow travelers.
Seasonal note: Every Friday year-round. Contact Chabad in advance via chabad.org
