About Holidays Calendar

What We Offer

Holiday dates and status

Country and holiday pages identify when a holiday occurs, which jurisdiction it applies to, and whether an observed or substitute date changes practical planning. Where useful, pages distinguish national, federal, bank, statutory, regional, special non-working, and other country-specific holiday terms.

Planning calendars

Monthly and yearly views place holiday dates in calendar context. Separate guides cover long weekends, bank closures, school schedules, postal services, market closures, and religious holidays when those topics require different sources or rules.

Calendar downloads

Free PDF calendars support printing and planning. Selected holiday pages also provide ICS files for personal calendar applications. Each download has a defined scope so a single-date file is not confused with a full country calendar.

Multi-year coverage

The site currently publishes 2026 and 2027 calendars and is structured to add later years without replacing the source notes, regional distinctions, or confirmation status that users need.

Why We Built This

Accurate holiday planning often requires checking a government calendar, a regional authority, an employer rule, and a service schedule separately. The same date may also be described as a public holiday in one country, a federal holiday in another, or a bank holiday in a particular region.

HolidaysCalendar.com brings those distinctions into a consistent, readable structure. The goal is not to replace official authorities. It is to make the relevant date, scope, source, and planning consequence easier to find before a user confirms the information with the responsible organization.

Country and Calendar Coverage

Dedicated country calendars are available for the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Philippines, Pakistan, India, Japan, South Korea, and China. Global monthly calendars and specialist guides include additional countries where the site has structured holiday records.

Coverage is expanded only when the country terminology, official source hierarchy, date rules, and regional differences can be represented clearly. A country calendar may therefore contain more detail than a global list, while a service-specific page may intentionally exclude dates that do not affect the service named in its title.

Browse the country holiday directory or open theholiday calendar directory to see the current published coverage.

Our Data Sources

Holiday dates are compiled from official government proclamations, legislation, public-service calendars, regional authority notices, and recognized institutions responsible for the relevant schedule. Market, bank, school, postal, and religious calendar pages use the authority appropriate to that subject rather than treating a general public holiday list as universal.

Source links are placed near the information they support or in a dedicated source section. Dates that depend on a later proclamation, lunar observation, local decision, or operational announcement are identified as provisional or awaiting confirmation when that distinction matters.

Editorial and Update Standards

• Use the holiday terminology that people and official authorities use in the relevant country.
• Keep the official holiday date separate from an observed, substitute, or service-closure date.
• State the geographic scope when a date applies only to a state, province, territory, or UK nation.
• Separate confirmed dates from planning estimates or announcements that are still pending.
• Review pages when a responsible authority publishes a new proclamation or changes an existing date.
• Link related country, category, calendar, and download pages only when the connection helps planning.

Corrections are evaluated against the responsible official source before a calendar or explanatory note is changed.

Important Limitations

Holiday dates can change because of legislation, government proclamations, local decisions, religious observations, emergency closures, or service-specific operating rules. A public holiday also does not automatically determine private business hours, paid leave, school attendance, postal delivery, bank processing, or market trading in every jurisdiction.

Calendar information on this site is provided for general reference and planning. Verify a critical date with the relevant government, employer, school, bank, exchange, postal operator, transport provider, or other responsible authority before making a legal, financial, employment, education, or travel decision. Additional conditions appear in our Terms of Service.
