A connection that I don't believe is commonly known, very interesting!
The Talmud teaches us that the 15th of Av and Yom Kippur are the happiest days of the Jewish calendar: Why and what is the connection between these two dates? (9:16)
The Talmud relates that the 20th of Av was a holiday for a particular family who brought wood to the Temple for the altar, the identity of this family is the topic of a debate.
