Acts 20:16 -- Paul hurries to reach Jerusalem for Pentecost. Winger notes he missed Passover and his motivation is gospel preaching to Jews gathered for the feast, not pure feast-day observance.

Survey of Acts 20:16, Paul and Pentecost

Winger handles this carefully: Paul is going to Jerusalem for Pentecost, which could imply feast observance. But he also missed Passover (so it is not comprehensive feast-keeping), and Acts 20:24 shows he is compelled by the Spirit with a gospel mission. His real goal is access to the gathered Jewish crowds for preaching.
