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.
Labor Day
1 May in most countries; the first Monday of September in the United States and Canada.
The workers' holiday. Almost everywhere it falls on 1 May; in the United States and Canada it was deliberately placed in September to avoid the associations of May Day.
Day off for Labor Day
The next available weekday when 1 May falls on a weekend.
The substitute day for Labour Day.
Children's Day
1 June across the post-Soviet states and much of Asia; other dates elsewhere.
Honours children. A public holiday in a number of countries, and in China a day off for children under thirteen rather than for everyone.
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.
Constitution Day
The anniversary of the adoption of the constitution — varies by country.
Marks the adoption of a country's constitution. A major public holiday in Norway, Poland, Denmark, Japan, Mexico and South Korea, among others.
Day off for Constitution Day
The next available weekday when Constitution Day falls on a weekend.
The substitute day for Constitution Day.
Liberation Day
The anniversary of liberation from occupation — varies by country.
Marks the end of a foreign occupation, most often the end of Axis occupation in 1944–45. Observed in Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway and a number of African and Asian states.
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.
Day off for Christmas Day
The next available weekday when 25 December falls on a weekend.
A substitute day off. Most countries that guarantee a fixed number of public holidays move the day off to the following weekday when the holiday itself lands on a weekend — the substitute day is a genuine day off, not a formality.
