Jewish holidays 2026

Each holiday begins at sunset on the evening before the date shown. The Hebrew calendar is lunisolar: a leap year inserts a thirteenth month, Adar I, and Purim stays in Adar II so that it remains thirty days before Passover.

Each holiday below begins at sunset on the evening before the date shown. The Hebrew calendar is lunisolar, so these dates move against the Gregorian year.

Hindu festivals are not listed anywhere on this site. Diwali and Holi are lunisolar and vary by region and by panchang, and there is no dependable way to compute them here — publishing a guess to a religious audience is worse than publishing nothing.
