FAQs on Telangana Holidays in 2027
Yes. Bhogi on Thursday, 14 January and Makar Sankranti on Friday, 15 January run straight into the weekend, giving four consecutive days off from Thursday through Sunday. It's a heavy travel period across the state, so it's worth booking travel early.
Yes, on Wednesday, 7 April 2027. It falls midweek with no natural long weekend of its own, but the nearby holidays on 14 and 15 April allow a five-day break if a single day of leave is taken on the Friday between them.
The General Administration Department typically issues it in December the year before, so Telangana's official 2027 order is expected toward the end of 2026. Bonalu and the later Bathukamma dates are confirmed only in that notification.
Telangana observes 24 notified holidays in 2027: 17 central gazetted holidays observed nationwide and 7 specific to the state.
Yes. Holidays notified for Telangana apply across Hyderabad, Warangal, Nizamabad, Karimnagar and Khammam, unless a specific government notification states otherwise for a particular district or town.
