Jesus was Jewish, so he would have celebrated such Jewish holidays as Passover, Rosh Hashanah (New Year) and Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement). He also celebrated Hanukkah, and this is mentioned in the Gospel of John in the New Testament. Also, while Jesus would not have celebrated them, there were Roman festivals such as the Saturnalia (birth of the Sun god) that were very popular in the Roman Empire.
In The Bible, Christians celebrated the resurrection of Jesus from the dead on the first day of the week (Sunday). They called it "The Lord's Day". So, every Sunday is a special Jesus' festival!
Jesus was born and raised in the Jewish traditions so he would have held and observed all major Jewish festivals. He observed the Sabbath and the last super was taken during Passover.
All the feasts outlined in the Torah of God, plus the feast of Dedication (Channukah)...some groups also observed Purim in honor of the story given in Esther
festival of booths, the passover
The three great Jewish festivals were then and are now Pesach (Passover), Shavuot (Pentecost, or the Feast of Weeks) and Succot (the Feast of Booths). Each of these is mandated in the festival calendars in the Torah, and on these festivals, when the Temple still stood in Jerusalem, all Jews were supposed to make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. We also know that Hanukkah was celebrated. It is even mentioned in the New Testament as the Feast of Dedication. That one is a post-biblical holiday instituted less than 200 years before Jesus. Note that Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur were also celebrated, but neither is technically a festival.
