About these holidays

New Year's Day

1 January. In many countries the day off moves to the following Monday when it falls on a weekend.

The first day of the Gregorian calendar year, and the most widely observed public holiday in the world — a day off in almost every country that uses the Gregorian calendar, regardless of religion. Several countries extend the break to 2 January, and some in East Asia keep both the Gregorian and a separate lunar new year.

Orthodox Christmas Day

7 January — 25 December on the Julian calendar.

Christmas as observed by churches following the Julian calendar, thirteen days after the Gregorian date. A public holiday in Russia, Serbia, Georgia, Ethiopia and other Orthodox-majority countries.

International Women's Day

8 March.

Marks the struggle for women's rights, with roots in the labour movement of the early 1900s. A full public holiday across the post-Soviet states; a half day for women only in China; and an observance in most of the rest of the world.

Orthodox Easter Sunday

Computed on the Julian calendar.

Easter Sunday on the Orthodox reckoning.

Orthodox Easter Monday

The Monday after Orthodox Easter.

A public holiday in Greece, Cyprus, Romania, Bulgaria and other Orthodox-majority countries, extending the Easter break.

Victory Day

8 or 9 May in Europe; other dates elsewhere.

Marks the end of the Second World War in Europe. Western Europe keeps 8 May; Russia and most post-Soviet states keep 9 May, because the surrender took effect after midnight Moscow time.

Memorial Day

The last Monday of May in the United States; other dates elsewhere.

Honours military personnel who died in service. In the United States it also marks the unofficial start of summer.

Independence Day

The anniversary of the country's independence — a different date in every country.

The national day of a country that gained independence from another state, and typically its most important secular holiday. Over a hundred countries observe one, on dates ranging across the whole calendar.

Christmas Day

25 December. The day off moves to the following weekday when it falls on a weekend.

The most widely observed public holiday after New Year's Day, a day off in the great majority of countries including many with no Christian majority, where it functions as a secular end-of-year holiday. Orthodox churches following the Julian calendar keep it on 7 January instead.
