“Let’s Play” at the 2025 Greater Naples Matzah Ball

By Michael Rubenstein, 2025 Matzah Ball Chair

Get ready to eat, drink, dance — and play — at this year’s most joyful celebration: the 2025 Greater Naples Matzah Ball!

This year's theme, "Let's Play," is all about embracing the spirit of fun, laughter, and community. From classic arcade throwbacks and nostalgic board games to clever backyard games and surprises around every corner, this Matzah Ball promises to be the most interactive and entertaining one yet.

But don't worry, the staples you love are all here too: mouthwatering food, incredible music, high-energy dancing, and an electric atmosphere that makes this event a standout in our community calendar. Whether you're showing off your best moves on the dance floor or challenging your friends to play a game (or two), play is the name of the game in 2025.

The Greater Naples Matzah Ball is an annual tradition designed to bring together Jewish young professionals, supporters, and friends — ages 21 to 55 — from across Southwest Florida. Whether you're single, coupled up, part of a crew, or flying solo, you're invited to celebrate with us.
