Planning Tips for 2026 Indonesia School Holidays
🏛️ One national calendar with regional exams
Kemendikbud publishes the national kalender pendidikan (mid-July start, June end); provinces set exam windows and Islamic schools follow integrated pesantren schedules.
🌙 Ramadan and Lebaran reshape term 3
The pre-Lebaran break moves ~11 days earlier each year and is the longest mid-year holiday — domestic mudik travel peaks then.
🏖️ Long mid-year libur
The mid-semester break (late December) and the July year-end split the Indonesian year; Nataru (Natal + Tahun Baru) is the big family travel window.
