Which are the biblical festivals?

YHVH' Feasts: then YHVH Almighty only God spoke to Moses, saying:

“Speak to the Israelites, and say to them, ‘The festivals of YHVH Almighty that you shall proclaim are holy assemblies; these are my appointed times.

Sabbath/שַׁבָּת

“For six days work is to be done, and on the seventh day shall be a Sabbath of complete rest, a holy assembly; you shall not do any work; it shall be a Sabbath for YHVH in all your dwellings".

The Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread come at the beginning of the spring barley harvest.

Easter/Passover:

“These are YHVH's appointed times, holy assemblies, which you shall proclaim at their appointed time. In the first month, on the fourteenth of the month at the evening is YHVH’s Passover. And on the fifteenth day of this month is YHVH’s Feast of Unleavened Bread; for seven days you shall eat unleavened bread. On the first day there shall be a holy assembly for you; you shall not do any regular work. And you shall present an offering for YHVH made by fire for seven days; on the seventh day there shall be a holy assembly; you shall not do any regular work".

The Feast of First fruits:

Then YHVH Almighty only God spoke to Moses, saying,  “Speak to the Israelites, and say to them, ‘When you come to the land that I am about to give to you and you reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first fruit of your harvest to the priest.  And he shall wave the sheaf before YHVH for your acceptance; the priest shall wave it on the day after the Sabbath. And on the day of your waving the sheaf you shall offer a yearling male lamb without defect as a burnt offering to YHVH. And its grain offering shall be two-tenths of an ephah of finely milled flour mixed with oil, an offering made by fire for YHVH, an appeasing fragrance; and its libation shall be a fourth of a hin of wine. And you shall not eat bread or roasted grain or ripe grain until this very same day, until you present your Almighty God’s offering.

This must be a lasting statute for your generations in all your dwellings.

The Feast of Weeks/Pentecost:

“And you shall count for yourselves from the day after the Sabbath, from the day of your bringing the wave offering’s sheaf—there shall be seven full weeks. Until the day after the seventh Sabbath you shall count fifty days; then you shall present a new grain offering for YHVH Almighty only God. You shall bring from your dwellings for a wave offering two loaves of bread made with two-tenths of an ephah of finely milled flour; they must be baked with leaven—the first fruits belonging to YHVH Almighty. And, in addition to the bread, you shall present seven yearling male lambs without defects and one young bull and two rams—they shall be a burnt offering for YHVH Almighty with their grain offering and their libations, an offering made by fire, an appeasing fragrance for YHVH. And you shall offer one he-goat as a sin offering and two yearling male lambs as a sacrifice of fellowship offerings. And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first fruits as a wave offering before YHVH Almighty only God; in addition to the two male lambs, they shall be holy for YHVH for the priest. And you shall make a proclamation on this very same day; it shall be a holy assembly for you; you shall not do any regular work; this is a lasting statute in all your dwellings throughout your generations. And when you reap the harvest of your land, you[am] must not finish the edge of your field at your reaping, and you must not glean the remnants of your harvest—you shall leave them behind for the needy and for the alien; I am YHVH your Almighty God".

The Feast of Trumpets:

Then YHVH Almighty only God spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the Israelites, saying, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you must have a rest period, a remembrance of the trumpet blast, a holy assembly. You must not do any regular work, and you shall present an offering made by fire to YHVH Almighty”.

The Day of Atonement:

Then YHVH Almighty only God spoke to Moses, saying,  “Surely the Day of Atonement is on the tenth day of the seventh month; it shall be a holy assembly for you, and you shall deny yourselves, and you shall present an offering made by fire to YHVH Almighty. And you must not do any regular work on this very same day, because it is the Day of Atonement to make atonement for you before YHVH Almighty your God. If there is any person who does not deny himself on this very same day, then he shall be cut off from his people. As for any person who does any work on this very same day, I will exterminate that person from the midst of his people. You must not do any work; it is a lasting statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings. It is a Sabbath of complete rest for you, and you shall deny yourselves on the ninth day of the month in the evening—from evening to evening you must observe your extraordinary Sabbath”.

The Feast of Booths or Tabernacle:

Then YHVH Almighty only God spoke to Moses, saying,  “Speak to the Israelites, saying, ‘On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, this shall be the Feast of Booths for seven days for YHVH Almighty. On the first day there shall be a holy assembly; you must not do any regular work. For seven days you must present an offering made by fire to YHVH Almighty . On the eighth day it shall be a holy assembly for you, and you shall present an offering made by fire to YHVH Almighty; it is a celebration; you must not do any regular work.
