Event Details

Winter Kallah is a convention focused on Jewish learning, identity, and lots of fun! This year's programming focus is TRADITION. We will explore cultural, family, American, Global, and even BBYO traditions during the conventions. Teens will be able to choose different options  through elective experiences led by speakers and educators, as well as their peers.

Friends and family are invited to attend Saturday Shabbat Services and speakers on Saturday. Information on how to register will follow!

Early Bird Fee: $295 open until 12/23/2019 at 11:59 pm

Until that date, full refunds will be granted for cancellations in writing (e-mail is acceptable), for any reason. After the registration deadline, partial refunds may be available based on convention expenses already paid (hotel, transportation, etc.).

Travel Info

Transportation Information: All teens must travel with their chapters or from their geographic location unless given permission by Samantha Walsh, [email protected] to ride from a different location. Buses will be staffed by advisors or parents. Our buses are almost full, so we are not able to accommodate last minute switches without permission. *Please note the times are approximate and we ask that you do arrive at the time below, so we can be on time. We do try to be at the locations by the time below, at times there are unforeseen delays.

We try our best to create bus stops that are convenient and provide easy access for our teens. For conventions, we try to have few bus stops along geographic areas. We add buses to areas that are over a certain distance and if they have 10 or more teens in attendance.

Transportation Provided from Lexington, Andover, North Shore (Peabody), Newton, Sharon, and Rhode Island. As our event is hosted in Framingham, teens should be dropped off/picked up by a parent/guardian. Teens may not drive to the event themselves from Framingham per BBYO transporation policy.
