Local Labour MPs Louise Ellman and Luciana Berger were star attractions at Sunday's Liverpool Limmud at the new King David campus.
The 400-plus turnout had the choice of more than 40 adult sessions and a further 15 for young people.
Mrs Ellman discussed making Israel's case in Parliament, Ms Berger spoke about her experiences as a young, female, Jewish MP.
Bangor University film studies lecturer Nathan Abrams gave a popular presentation on the portrayal of Jews in film and Daniel Cainer performed songs from his show, Jewish Chronicles, which was a sell-out at the Edinburgh Festival.
