Enjoy long holidays in 2026
If you want some relief from your busy routine and office work, then 2026 is bringing many wonderful long weekends for you. This year, there will be many opportunities to travel in every month. For example, the year will start with a long weekend in April, which coincides with Good Friday. Even though some people may not be able to plan for this particular weekend, there are many long weekends throughout the year that will give you the opportunity to plan a trip with ease.
Holiday fun in April and May
In the first week of April, there will be a three-day holiday from April 3 to 5 due to Good Friday.

Continuation of holidays from September to October
In September, there will be a three-day long weekend from 4th to 6th September on the occasion of Janmashtami.
