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.
New Year Holiday
The days immediately after 1 January, where the break runs longer than one day.
An additional day off attached to New Year's Day. Countries that treat the turn of the year as a multi-day break — much of Eastern Europe, Japan, and parts of Asia — grant these beyond 1 January.
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.
Day off for International Women's Day
The next available weekday when 8 March falls on a weekend.
The substitute day for International Women's Day, granted in the post-Soviet states where 8 March is a full public holiday.
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.
Unity Day
Varies by country.
Marks national unification or reconciliation — German reunification, Russia's Day of National Unity, and similar anniversaries elsewhere.
