Holiday breaks
Nagoya winter school break: family trips
Nagoya's municipal calendar for Reiwa 8 (2026/27) sets winter break from 24 December 2026 to 6 January 2027, with school resuming on 7 January. Spring break differs by school stage: municipal primary, middle, kindergarten and special schools break 25 March – 5 April 2027, while high schools break 21 March – 4 April. Some middle and high schools differ. Summer 2027 dates are not shown because only the 2026 summer was published.

- 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.
