This year (2021) Purim falls on a Friday.

This year Purim begins on Thursday February 25 in the evening and ends Friday February 26 as Shabbat begins.

There are many mitzvot performed on Purim day and when the holiday falls out on a Friday things are done a little differently than in a ‘normal’ year.

Since this year has been anything but normal it’s fitting Purim will be celebrated a little differently.
