I created this thread wondering what kinds of Zen Buddhist holidays are celebrated. So far I've come up with Rohatsu (Bodhi Day) and Hanamatsuri (Vesak).
Are these the only Zen holidays in Japan?

Urabon (ullambana) is a major observance.
In monasteries you'll find a schedule of annual observances, with some variations depending on where you are. For example:
