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.
National Day
Varies by country — a founding, unification, or constitutional anniversary.
The principal patriotic holiday of a country that does not frame its national day as independence — a founding, unification, revolution or monarch's day depending on the state.
Eid al-Fitr
1 Shawwal, the day after Ramadan ends. The date depends on a moon sighting and is often confirmed only a day or two in advance.
The festival that ends Ramadan, and the largest holiday of the year across the Muslim world. Most countries grant two to three consecutive days; Indonesia and Malaysia extend it further with collective leave. Because the date is set by moon sighting, calendars published far in advance are provisional.
Labour Day
1 May in most countries.
International Workers' Day, commemorating the 1886 Haymarket affair in Chicago, and a public holiday in most of the world. The United States and Canada are the notable exceptions, holding their Labor Day in September instead.
Assumption of Mary
15 August.
A Catholic and Orthodox feast marking the assumption of the Virgin Mary. A public holiday across southern and Central Europe, Latin America and francophone Africa, and the peak of the summer holiday season in France and Italy.
Ganesh Chaturthi
The fourth day of Bhadrapada, in August or September.
Celebrates the birth of Ganesha. Largest in Maharashtra, where the ten-day festival ends with the immersion of clay images.
Diwali
The new moon of Kartik on the Hindu lunisolar calendar, in October or November.
The festival of lights, the largest Hindu festival of the year and also observed by Sikhs and Jains. A public holiday in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, Mauritius, Fiji, Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana.
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.
