Public holidays around the world
Browse official public holidays for over 100 countries, by country and year. “Public holiday” means different things in different places — a national day off in one country may be observed only regionally in another, and some holidays move each year because they follow lunar or religious calendars. Pick a country to see its dates for this year and beyond.
Observed vs actual dates
When a public holiday falls on a weekend, many countries grant a substitute day off — often the following Monday. That “observed” date is when offices and banks actually close, which may differ from the holiday’s calendar date. Where it applies, the country pages note it, so you’re planning around the day that really matters.
