More synagogues now livestream their services online. On the High Holidays, these streams are often restricted to synagogue members or cost money to watch — but not always.
This guide provides mostly free options for streaming Rosh Hashanah services online in various U.S. time zones. Because strict holiday observance precludes using electricity and computers on Rosh Hashanah, Orthodox congregations generally don’t livestream their services.
My Jewish Learning’s Free Rosh Hashanah Service
Please join My Jewish Learning for a meaningful, interactive online experience as we welcome the new year together. The rabbi-led Rosh Hashanah service will be on Zoom, Friday, September 11, 2026, at 5:30 pm ET. Whether you’re continuing a long-standing tradition or joining us for the first time, all are welcome to participate.
An Open Door for Everyone. On Sukkot, guests are welcomed into the sukkah — a tradition of hospitality that's central to the holiday. My Jewish Learning holds that same door open all year, welcoming anyone curious about Jewish life and community. Your gift keeps it open.
