Public holidays are known for 2026 and 2027, from the open-sourcepython-holidays data (MIT licence, version0.105). State governments notify their own lists and festival dates can move, so check a date that matters against the official notification. When you open this page, the location may be filled in from where your connection appears to be; nothing about it is kept. See public holidays by country and state.

Questions people ask

Are both dates counted?

Yes. The start and end dates are both included, the way a leave request or a project phase is usually counted, and the way Excel's NETWORKDAYS counts.

What counts as a working day?

A day of the working week you choose that is not a public holiday in the region you choose. The usual week for most regions is Monday to Friday; for Saudi Arabia and Qatar it is Sunday to Thursday.

Which public holidays are included?

The public holidays a government notifies for everybody in that country or state, from the open-source python-holidays data. Optional and restricted holidays are not included, and festival dates are estimates that can move, so check a date that matters against the official notification.

Can I download the result?

Yes. Under every answer you can download every day in the range, marked working or not and naming any holiday, as an Excel workbook or a CSV file.
