BYU Model Passover Seder

The BYU Model Passover Seder will be held in 2026 in two evening sessions in the BYU Wilkinson Center: Friday March 27 and Friday April 10. Tickets will be available for sale beginning Monday, February 23, 2026 at 8 AM.

The BYU Model Passover Seder includes the biblical unleavened bread and bitter herbs, and features other festival foods and traditions of Passover, all in a specially catered meal. The Seder is hosted and led by Dr. Jeffrey Chadwick, BYU Religious Education (Jewish Studies) and Jerusalem Center professor.

It will be an evening of cultural learning with scripture connections. It promises to be an enriching experience, centered on an appreciation of the ancient Israelite and modern Jewish celebration that commemorates the deliverance of Israel from Egypt. This is a 40-year tradition at BYU.
