About this calendar

A clearer way to see holidays.

Official and widely observed dates, clearly labeled by status.

Holiday pages separate official public dates from observances so that a cultural date is not mistaken for a statutory day off.

Choose the correct country and year, then open a month for legal-status labels. Employment rules can vary by province, state, employer, and sector.

Read our data and calculation methods for coverage and accuracy limits. If a date or result looks wrong, report a calendar error.
