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. Note that the biggest of the three great festivals was Succot -- this is attested to by the diaries of Romans witnesses. Passover came in second.
