Holiday
This weekend is a four-day weekend; Sep. 21 is Respect for the Aged Day; Sep. 22 is the Autumnal Equinox. We have a national holiday in October called Gymnastics Day. But this year it was moved to July, when the opening ceremony of the Olympics was scheduled to be held. Halloween is not a holiday, but I'm going to enjoy it quietly.
今週末は4連休だ。9/21は敬老の日。9/22は秋分の日。10月は体育の日という祝日がある。だが今年はオリンピックの開会式を予定していた7月に移動してしまった。ハロウィンは祝日ではないが、ひっそりと楽しもうと思っている。

It's very unusual to use more than one semicolon in a row.
We have a national holiday in October called Gymnastics Day.
ButHowever, this year, it was moved to July, when the opening ceremony of the Olympics was scheduled to be held.
This is a slightly more formal way of writing it. What you wrote isn't necessarily wrong.
Halloween is not a holiday, but I'm going to enjoy it quietly.
It's a bit unclear to me what you mean by "enjoy it quietly."

Halloween is not a holiday, but I'm going to enjoy it quietly.
The sentence is grammatically correct. However, "quietly" at the end feels a little off to me. I might write it: "Halloween is not a holiday, but I'm going to enjoy it anyways." or "Halloween is not a holiday, but I'm going to enjoy it on my own." What you have does work, these are just other options.

Good job! My corrections were all about punctuation and very minor. Please let me know if you have any questions.
