Program for Siyum Hashas Unveiled Ahead of Big Day

Newark, N.J. – American Jews are gearing up for one final siyum hashas for the 13th daf yomi cycle, which began over a month ago. The Dirshu World Siyum Celebration will be taking place at three locations in New Jersey Sunday evening, with the program beginning at 6:30.

The doors at the Prudential Center, NJPAC and the Newark Symphony Hill, which is for women only, open at 5:30, with security checks beginning an hour earlier. Maariv is at 6:15 and the program will conclude at 10:30.

With so many people waiting to enter a limited space at one time there is bound to be delays. There will also be heavy security. Dirshu officials are asking people not to bring in personal food; sandwiches and drinks will be provided at no cost.
