Planning Tips for 2026 Lombardia (Milano) School Holidays
🏛️ National framework, regional tweaks
The Ministry sets the national framework (classes mid-September to early June, ~200 days) and regional offices and councils adjust start/end dates — Sicily and the North can differ by two weeks.
🏖️ Summer is ~13 weeks
Italy has one of Europe's longest summer breaks (early/mid-June to mid-September); Ferragosto (15 August) empties the cities — coastal prices peak that exact week.
🏰 Carnival and patron saint days add breaks
Regional carnival breaks in February and city patron-saint days create local pupil-free days that the national calendar does not show — check the comune's school calendar.
⛷️ Settimana bianca is regional
Alpine provinces (Trento, Bolzano) schedule a white week (ski break) in February; the rest of the country does not — a genuine regional difference.
