In between sessions, let your body and soul be nourished by Limmud Festival’s full-board dining experience. Limmud Festival’s catering volunteers work with our caterer Eighteen Events, to provide not only kosher breakfast, lunch and dinner, but a range of food and beverages outside of meals to keep you refreshed. Whether it’s your first kosher meal or your 1000th, we hope you be able to eat in the way that works best for you: family dining, grab-and-go food, quiet dining and more.
This food will be exciting, filled with flavour and bursting with fun and enjoyed with that unique Limmud dining atmosphere. After dinner is finished and the bar is in full swing, you will be able to purchase late night bar snacks and hot food to get you through the night.
All food on site is kosher (supervised by the Sephardi Kashrut Authority). Included in the cost of your Festival ticket are breakfast, lunch, dinner, as well as basic tea, coffee and water. Snacks and other drinks are able available for purchase during the day and the late evening.
This year, Limmud Festival will be vegetarian, with some fish available.
At breakfast and lunch, there will be hot and cold options, with lunch including an “grab and go” option at various locations around the site. At dinner, hot food will be available in our main dining room.
The caterer will plan food suitable for all those with special dietary needs, if informed in advance. If you have any dietary requirements, please make sure to include all relevant details on your application form when you register for Limmud Festival, so that Limmud and the caterer can plan for your requirements. If there is a change to your requirements between submitting your application and Festival, please contact the Limmud office at office@limmud.org as soon as possible – the caterer is unlikely to be able to accommodate dietary needs, if they are only informed about them when you arrive at Limmud Festival.
There will be children’s food served at every meal of the day at our Families’ dining room in the Hilton. If you have any questions about food for your family, then please get in touch with our Limmud office at office@limmud.org and we will be delighted to help.
We want to ensure everyone stays hydrated; there will be water and hot drink stations being refreshed regularly throughout the day across the site. To help us be more sustainable, please bring reusable water bottles, thermoses, and coffee cups
Food and Drink Available for Purchase
In case you get a little hungry or thirsty between meals during the day, or you want a little something to sustain you through the evening’s sessions and entertainment, we can offer you some options!
There will be coffee, baked goods and light snacks to purchase during the day, from Sunday to Wednesday morning, at the coffee shop.
Undoubtedly one of the buzzing hubs of the Festival experience, the Limmud Bar will once again be a great place to meet fellow participants and catch up with friends, old and new, in the evenings from Saturday to Tuesday. From water to wine to whisky, all of your favourite spirits, sodas and snacks will be available, and our bar volunteers will be waiting to help you out. Whether you’re getting into the party spirit or unwinding after another great day, the Limmud Bar will certainly be a place you can’t miss!
Sometimes, later in the evening, you just need some extra food and our Late-Night Food options will solve that in a hurry. There will be a range of delicious light hot food options and bar snacks for everyone, available from Sunday to Tuesday.
Help us reduce waste
We’re continuing our efforts to reduce the number of disposable cups used at Festival. Please bring a reusable water bottle and a reusable cup for hot drinks if you can.
If you forget, don’t worry – Limmud reusable water bottles and travel cups will be available to purchase onsite.
