England · 2025–26
For most of England, October half-term 2025–26 runs 27 October 2025 to 31 October 2025. 4 of the 43 councils measured here do something different — and if yours is one of them, that difference is worth money.
A council marked off-peak is on holiday in a week when most of England is still in school. That is a legal, penalty-free, off-peak window if you live there.
