About these holidays

New Year

1 January.

The start of the Gregorian calendar year. Some sources list this alongside a separate New Year's Day entry when a country grants more than one day off around the turn of the year.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day

The third Monday of January in the United States.

Honours the civil rights leader, observed near his birthday of 15 January. A US federal holiday since 1986, and observed in all fifty states since 2000.

President's Day

The third Monday of February in the United States.

Officially Washington's Birthday, though most states treat it as honouring all presidents. Moved to a fixed Monday in 1971 to create a long weekend.

Good Friday

The Friday before Easter Sunday.

Commemorates the crucifixion, and is the most widely observed Christian public holiday after Christmas. Together with Easter Monday it produces a four-day weekend in much of Europe, the Commonwealth and Latin America. In several countries it also carries trading or entertainment restrictions beyond the day off itself.

Easter Monday

The Monday after Easter Sunday.

A public holiday across most of Europe, the Commonwealth and Latin America, extending the Easter weekend to four days. Notably not a holiday in the United States, Portugal or Spain outside Catalonia and the Balearics.

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.

Emancipation Day

1 August across the British Caribbean; other dates elsewhere.

Marks the abolition of slavery. Observed across the Caribbean, in parts of Canada and the United States, and in several African states.

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.

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.

Veterans' Day

11 November in the United States.

Honours all who have served in the armed forces, distinct from Memorial Day, which honours those who died in service.

Thanksgiving Day

The fourth Thursday of November in the United States; the second Monday of October in Canada.

A harvest festival that has become the largest domestic travel holiday in the United States. Canada keeps its own six weeks earlier, matching its earlier harvest.

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.
