When Does Sukkot Start 2024. Sukkot is one of three pilgrimage festivals, and always takes place five days after yom — the seven days of sukkot—celebrated by dwelling in the sukkah, taking the four kinds, and rejoicing—is the holiday when we expose ourselves to the elements in covered huts, commemorating g‑d's sheltering our ancestors as they traveled from egypt to the promised land.
When will sukkot celebrations begin in 2024? These four days between yom kippur and sukkot are characterized by frenetic activity—purchasing of the four kinds, erecting the sukkah hut, inviting guests for the forthcoming holiday, shopping for and preparing all the meals.
