Holiday breaks
Bergen winter school break: family trips from Bergen
Bergen municipality's current guidance puts winter break on 1–5 March 2027, inclusive; an earlier proposal of 22–26 February no longer applies. Christmas is 23–31 December 2026, with 1 January a separate holiday, and Easter 22–29 March 2027. The last school day is 18 June and the next first school day 16 August, so 19 June – 15 August is a derived summer window. After-school care (SFO) closes on 30 June and reopens on 2 August, which is different from school. Each school confirms its own calendar.

What to weigh
- The five-day example matches the March winter week; with weekends the gap is nine days.
- Winter and Easter are three weeks apart in 2027; pick one for a longer trip.
- The shortlist is ranked on modelled cost only; it does not filter by flight time, direct service, weather or entry rules. Check those yourself.
- The budget is an editable illustration in local currency for a family of four, not a typical, recommended or guaranteed amount.
Questions
- Is winter break in February?
