August 2027 country calendar
Use this August 2027 calendar for the USA to confirm the federal holiday schedule and identify three state-specific dates. The federal list has no August entry, while Rhode Island, Vermont, and Hawaii each recognize a holiday within their own jurisdiction.
Direct answer
No. There are no U.S. federal holidays in August 2027. State holidays may still apply in Rhode Island, Vermont, and Hawaii, but they do not create a nationwide federal closure.

August begins on Sunday and ends on Tuesday in 2027. The month has 31 days, 22 weekdays, and nine weekend days. Use the printable grid to place state holidays and personal dates without treating every marked event as a nationwide federal closure.
State calendar
Three dated state holidays are especially relevant to an August 2027 search: Victory Day in Rhode Island, Bennington Battle Day in Vermont, and Statehood Day in Hawaii. Their official basis and practical reach are different, so each date should remain labelled with its state rather than being copied into a general U.S. federal holiday list.
Rhode Island defines Victory Day as the second Monday in August, placing it on August 9 in 2027. It is a Rhode Island legal holiday, not a federal observance and not a holiday in the other states. Anyone using the date for work or public-service planning should check the current Rhode Island notice and the rule that applies to the specific employer or agency.
Vermont law lists August 16 as Bennington Battle Day. In 2027 the fixed date falls on a Monday. The day commemorates the Revolutionary War battle associated with the defense of the region and appears on the Vermont state calendar. Its legal recognition does not make August 16 a federal holiday or establish the same operating schedule for organizations outside Vermont.
Hawaii's published 2027 state schedule places Statehood Day on Friday, August 20, the third Friday of the month. It is relevant to Hawaii state government calendars and can affect state offices. Agencies with nonstandard workweeks and other organizations may use separate operating rules, so the official state schedule should be paired with the notice from the service or workplace involved.
Adjacent federal dates
For plans that cross the August month boundary, the nearest federal holidays are listed below. Use the observed Independence Day date for federal schedules in July and the Labor Day date for September planning.
Coverage guide
A federal holiday sets the calendar used by federal agencies and employees covered by the federal schedule. States may recognize additional legal or government holidays for their own institutions. Those state dates do not automatically change the calendar for another state, a private employer, a school district, a court, a bank branch, or a delivery provider.
Federal office or nationwide federal dateUse the OPM 2027 holiday schedule. It confirms the official federal dates and any weekday observed date.
State office or state employee scheduleUse the responsible state's official calendar. Check Rhode Island, Vermont, or Hawaii directly when one of the August dates applies.
School, college, court, or local governmentUse the calendar issued by the district, institution, court system, county, or municipality; a state holiday label alone may not answer the closure question.
Private workplace, bank, mail, or transport serviceUse the employer or provider's dated operating notice. Federal and state holiday status supplies context, but the organization confirms hours and deadlines.
This order prevents two common errors: treating an August state date as a national day off, or assuming that the absence of a federal entry guarantees every local office and service follows an ordinary schedule.
