Jewish holidays, this year and next
Every Jewish holiday and fast in date order, when each one begins, whether it closes Israel, the right greeting to use, and a calendar download for each.
5787 is a leap year: an extra month, Adar I, is added before Adar II so the holidays stay in their season.

“Begins” is the evening before the Gregorian date shown, since the Hebrew day starts at nightfall. “Closed in Israel” marks a full Yom Tov, when most work stops; Chol HaMoed days inside a festival's range are not closed the same way.
