That really depends on how much celebrating you like to do. I really like to celebrate, especially when it comes to celebrating the life of the Messiah. It was real easy for me to give up the six pagan holy days rooted in worshipping the sun-god like: Valentines Day, Easter, Mothers Day, Fathers Day, Halloween, and especially Christmas, for the Seven Messianic Feasts. Not only do I get to exchange the sun-god for the Messiah, I get an extra celebration in the deal.
These are the Seven Messianic Feasts
Feast of Unleavened Bread (Passover)
Feast of Harvest (Hag HaKatzir)
Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah)
Feast of Tabernacles (Hag HaSukkot)
Feast of Gatherings (Shemini Atzeret)
Feast of Dedication/Lights (Hanukah)
Feast of Lots (Purim)
These are the Seven High Sabbaths
Fifteenth Day of Aviv - First Day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread
Twenty-First Day of Aviv - Last Day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread
After the Omer - Hag HaKatzir (Feast of Harvest) or Yom HaBikurim (Day of Firstfruits)
First Day of Ethanim - Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets begins day's of awe)
Tenth Day of Ethanim - Yom Kippor (Day of Atonement ends the day's of awe)
Fifteenth Day of Ethanim - Sukkot (First Day of the Feast of Tabernacles)
Twenty-Second Day of Ethanim - Shamini Atzeret (Feast of Gatherings)
These are other highly regarded days
The Triumphal Entry (Tenth Day of Aviv)
Preparation of Passover (Fourteenth Day of Aviv)
First Day of First Fruits (First day after Passover Sabbath)
Purim - Feast of Lots (Fifteenth Day of Adar, NOT Adar-Veit)
Anyone not keeping the Messianic Feasts is robbing themselves of the blessings that come with keeping and observing them. By keeping the Messianic Feasts we gain understanding of the prophetic focal points that took place in the Scripture, what they are about and how they will play out in the near future as they are fulfilled. These details of the Feasts help us understand some of the symbology in the Scripture as well, not to mention the fellowship and great food.
