May 1–2, 2026: Share challah and joy with friends.
National Challah Day
National Challah Day, founded by Challah Back Girls™ and enriched by OneTable as a 2026 partner, takes place May 1–2, and invites people everywhere to gather (with challah!) at Shabbat tables and celebrate Jewish joy.

Save the date, share this with your fellow challah lovers, and sign up for early access to exclusive recipes, events, curated resources, prizes, and a few surprises.

Be the first to know.

Established to transform a simple loaf into a catalyst for connection, National Challah Day invites people to explore rituals, honor Jewish joy, and create moments around the table. From seasoned hosts and first-time guests to curious bakers and experienced chefs, there’s power in coming together over delicious food, shared tradition, and meaningful community.

The celebration will begin April 30 with a Challah Back Girls virtual bake and watch parties, followed by OneTable Shabbat dinners on Friday, May 1. Everyone will be invited to keep the joy going on May 2. And, if there’s leftover challah, make French toast on May 3!

If you want to get involved sooner, sign up to host a OneTable Shabbat dinner on any Friday night and order challah from Challah Back Girls.

About Challah Back Girls: Challah Back Girls™ (CBG) is a small business created by four siblings to bake the world a more just and compassionate place through the unity of challah—a traditionally Jewish braided bread. What began in a family kitchen has grown into a global movement, baking and delivering challah across the U.S. and partnering with brands, organizations, and communities to break bread, deepen connections, raise awareness, and celebrate culture.
