World’s largest Hanukkah menorah lights up Israeli hospital 

The world’s largest Hanukkah menorah now stands proudly at Schneider Children’s Medical Center in Petah Tikva, crafted entirely from 25,000 recyclable balloons.

Organized by the Tikva Umarpe organization, the menorah’s construction involved 100 dedicated volunteers and a rappelling crew who worked overnight to bring the vision to life.

This marks the tenth consecutive year that Schneider Children’s Medical Center has hosted the record-breaking menorah.

In a poignant addition this year, a yellow "hostages ribbon" was incorporated into the design, symbolizing hope and prayers for the swift return of those held captive.
