Yom Kippur is not really "celebrated" but it is perhaps the most important day of the Jewish calendar. On this day, Jews fast from sundown the evening before until nightfall (about 25 hours) and spend much of that time in congregational prayer. This fast includes abstinence from food, drink, bathing, sexual relations, wearing leather or elaborate jewelry, perfume or lotions.
Yom Kippur means the Day of Atonement. This is because on this day all of a person's sins are atoned for, by confessing them to those who you have wronged and seeking forgiveness in the days leading up to the holiday, and then seeking forgiveness from God.
