School Holidays in August-September 2026 Include Eid-e-Milad, Raksha Bandhan, Onam
In late August and September 2026, schools across India will observe several festival-related holidays, including Eid-e-Milad on August 26, Raksha Bandhan on August 28, and Janmashtami on September 4. Onam celebrations, primarily in Kerala, also fall around August 25-28, with school closures varying by state and institution. Ganesh Chaturthi on September 14 is another notable holiday. School closures depend on regional, board, and school-specific calendars, so students and parents are advised to confirm local schedules.
