Mimouna (Hebrew: מימונה, Arabic: ميمونة, Berber: Mimuna, ⵎⵉⵎⵓⵏⴰ) is a traditional Maghrebi Jewish[1][2] celebration dinner that takes place in Morocco,[3][4][5] Israel,[6] France,[7] Canada,[8] and other places around the world where Maghrebi Jews live. It is held the day after Passover, marking the return to eating hametz (leavened bread), which is forbidden throughout the week of Passover.
