HIGH HOLY DAY TICKETS
Most synagogues offer tickets for the High Holy Day services to non-members. Here are some synagogues, their websites, and location, so you can check out your options online.
For the synagogues listed below you can go to the link or call their office.
Generally speaking current ticket costs are running about $500 to 600 for a household for all services; about $250 for one adult for all services; About $40 to 60 for a child age 5 to 18; Toddlers are free. College student or active military are free.
Date: Rosh Hashanah is evening of Sept. 16 & day of Sept. 17; Yom Kippur is evening of Sept. 25 and day of Sept. 26
Note that Conservative and Orthodox shuls observe a second day of Rosh Hashanah and you typically do not need to buy tickets but they may require that you get a ticket for security reasons.
