The event, called “The Live the Life Event,” is expected to begin at 12:15 p.m. and will bring together 8,000 attendees, highlighting teens who publicly embrace their Jewish identity amid rising antisemitism and social pressures to hide or soften their faith. The ceremony will be broadcast worldwide.
Rabbi Mendy Kotlarsky, chairman of Chabad’s Global Networks, said the gathering will showcase the “strength and hope” of Jewish youth and inspire communities worldwide.
Participants include UCLA student Eli Tsives, viral Jewish content creators Mendel Richter, Miriam Ezagui, and Raizel Namdar, sports entrepreneur Marcus Sharf and Jewish athletes Michael Shapira, Justin Schoen, and Scarlet Gurevich, as well as Black Jewish rapper Nissim Black.
With nearly 900 chapters in more than 60 countries, CTeen promotes public Jewish pride and leadership. This year’s theme, “Live the Life,” encourages teens to respond to hate with visibility and positivity.

Nobody appreciates QUALITY comments. You just have to conform to the narrative. Very sad.
Idiot – what is wrong wit this venue.
You jealous of their success or something?
Lions are an endangered species. But I see potential in other species – maybe local black bears whom have become an issue in recent years. Even better – some sort of invasive animal.
