Let no one, then, pass judgment on you in matters of food and drink or with regard to a festival or new moon or Sabbath (Col. 2:16)

Ah yes, the go-to verse to desperately seek a loophole to get out of Gods Holy Law. There were holidays (holy days) then just as now. As a Christian are you mandated or forbidden to observe Christmas(?) or the Fourth of July? Or is it up to you? Emperors famously declared their birthdays or some war memorial a holiday. As far as the Sabbaths referred to here, there are two additional Sabbaths mentioned in the OT for the Israelite s to keep. Nothing much to see here. The Ten Commandments are a unit wrote by the Hand of God on stone signifying permanence. There is a copy in Heaven in the Ark of the heavenly Covenant.
Jesus kept the Sabbath. Are you greater than He or know more than He did(does)?

That’s not a go to verse, rather one of the verses taken in conjunction with

>Matthew 28:1: “Now after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb.”
Mark 16:2: “Very early in the morning, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.”

Acts 20:7: “Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight.”

I Corinthians 16:2: “On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper that there be no collections when I come.”

Remember Mark 2:27 says, “The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath.” and

“One man regards one day above another, another regards every day alike. Let each man be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 He who observes the day, observes it for the Lord, and he who eats, does so for the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who eats not, for the Lord he does not eat, and gives thanks to God,” (Rom. 14:5-6).
