This is an almanac-like listing of major Jewish holidays from 2000 to 2050. All Jewish holidays begin at sunset on the evening before the date shown. On holidays marked "*", Jews are not permitted to work. Because the Hebrew calendar is governed by precise mathematical rules and no longer relies at all on observation, it is possible to provide the date in the Gregorian calendar that a holiday will fall on for the future. 5760s (2000s) 5760 (1999–2000) Saturday, September 11: Rosh HaShanah* Monday, September 20: Yom Kippur* Saturday, September 25: Sukkot* Saturday, October 2: Shemini Atzeret* Sunday, October 3: Simchat Torah* Saturday, December 4: Hanukkah Saturday, January 22: Tu Bishvat Tuesday, March 21: Purim Wednesday, March 22: Shushan Purim Thursday, April 20: Pesach* Tuesday, May 2: Yom HaShoah Tuesday, May 9: Yom HaZikaron Wednesday, May 10: Yom Ha'atzmaut Tuesday, May 23: Lag B'Omer Friday, June 2: Yom Yerushalayim Friday, June 9: Shavuot* Thursday, July 20: Tzom Tammuz Thursday, August 10: Tisha B'Av Wednesday, August 16: Tu B'Av 5761 (2000–2001) Saturday, September 30: Rosh HaShanah* Monday, October 9: Yom Kippur* Saturday, October 14: Sukkot* Saturday, October 21: Shemini Atzeret* Sunday, October 22: Simchat Torah* Friday, December 22: Hanukkah Thursday, February 8: Tu Bishvat Friday, March 9: Purim Sunday, March 11: Shushan Purim Sunday, April 8: Pesach* Thursday, April 19: Yom HaShoah Wednesday, April 25: Yom HaZikaron Thursday, April 26: Yom Ha'atzmaut Friday, May 11: Lag B'Omer Monday, May 21: Yom Yerushalayim Monday, May 28: Shavuot* Sunday, July 8: Tzom Tammuz Sunday, July 29: Tisha B'Av Saturday, August 4: Tu B'Av 5762 (2001–2002) Tuesday, September 18: Rosh HaShanah* Thursday, September 27: Yom Kippur* Tuesday, October 2: Sukkot* Tuesday, October 9: Shemini Atzeret* Wednesday, October 10: Simchat Torah* Monday, December 10: Hanukkah Monday, January 28: Tu Bishvat Tuesday, February 26: Purim Wednesday, February 27: Shushan Purim Thursday, March 28: Pesach* Tuesday, April 9: Yom Ha'Shoah Wednesday, April 17: Yom Ha'atzmaut Tuesday, April 30: Lag Ba'omer Friday, May 17: Shavuot* Thursday, July 18: Tisha B'Av 5763 (2002–2003) Saturday, September 7: Rosh HaShanah* Monday, September 16: Yom Kippur* Saturday, September 21: Sukkot* Saturday, September 28: Shemini Atzeret* Sunday, September 29: Simchat Torah* Saturday, November 30: Hanukkah Saturday, January 18: Tu Bishvat Tuesday, March 18: Purim Wednesday, March 19: Shushan Purim Thursday, April 17: Pesach* Tuesday, April 29: Yom Ha'Shoah Wednesday, May 7: Yom Ha'atzmaut Tuesday, May 20: Lag Ba'omer Friday, June 6: Shavuot* Thursday,
