Here’s your **Lyon hostel social calendar table**, with the **recommended post window** in column 1 (so you can plan like a functional adult, or at least fake it online).
Dates are **2026** where they’re fixed/confirmed; anything “TBD” is because festivals love suspense. Key sources include France’s holiday calendars ([Service Public][1]), Lyon’s major-event listings, and official festival sites where available ([Nuits Sonores][2]).

#### Two quick reality checks (because calendars lie)
* **Biennale de la Danse**: it’s described as held in **odd years** (so not a 2026 anchor). ([Visit Lyon][15])
* **French public holidays**: there was political noise about scrapping some holidays for budget reasons, but the standard holiday list is still what you plan against unless the law actually changes. ([Service Public][1])
If you want this as a spreadsheet-ready CSV, you can copy the table straight into Sheets, but humans love suffering so it might need minor cleanup.
