How to read this page
- National holidays only. Each row is a holiday observed across a whole country. Holidays that only some states, provinces or cantons observe are not listed, so a place can be closed on a day that is not shown here.
- Expected dates. Holidays tied to the lunar or Islamic calendar are marked expected, can differ by a day, because the date depends on a moon sighting that is announced shortly before.
- Date check. The date is the calendar date in each country. The table shows the local time there, so you can see if the holiday is on now, still to come or already over when it is already the next day (or still the day before) in that time zone. Countries that span several time zones use the capital city's clock.
- Sources. 36 countries come from OpenHolidays, which collects official calendars; the other 206 are computed with the open-source python-holidays library from each country's published rules. Always confirm with the official calendar before you plan around a date.
What to check before you travel on a public holiday
- Opening hours. Check the official website or listing of any museum, attraction, restaurant or market you plan to visit; many publish special holiday hours.
- Transport. Look at the timetable of the train, bus or ferry operator for the date. Services on a public holiday are sometimes run to a different timetable.
- Money and errands. Banks, government offices and many shops may be closed, and transport can run on a reduced timetable; check locally.
- Long weekends. When a holiday falls next to a weekend, some countries give a day off on a nearby date (shown here as an observed day off), and domestic travel can be busier.
Quick answers
- Which countries have a public holiday today?
- On this page's date: Dominica, Northern Mariana Islands, Russia. The page uses the UTC date, Wednesday 4 November 2026, and shows the local time in each country so you can see whether its holiday has started.
- Will banks and shops be closed on a public holiday?
- Often, but it depends on the country and the holiday. Banks, government offices and many shops may be closed, and public transport can run on a Sunday-style timetable. Tourist sites, restaurants and hotels are frequently open, sometimes with changed hours. Check the place you plan to visit directly.
- Why does a country show a holiday as "expected, can differ by a day"?
- Some holidays follow the lunar or Islamic calendar. The exact day is set by a moon sighting or an official announcement shortly before, so the calculated date can be one day off. The official calendar of that country decides.
- Are regional holidays included?
- No. Only nationwide public holidays are listed. Many countries also have state, provincial or cantonal holidays (for example in Germany, Switzerland, Spain and the United States) that apply only in part of the country.
- Why does the page show a different date for some countries?
- When it is already the next day in places such as New Zealand, Japan or Australia, or still the previous day in the Americas, the calendar date differs from the UTC date. The table shows the local time in each country so you can see if its holiday is on now, still to come or over.
- Where does the data come from?
- OpenHolidays API (ODbL licence) for 36 European, African and American countries, and the open-source python-holidays library (MIT) for the rest. Neither is an official government feed; use each country's official calendar for anything important.
