About this calendar
In 2026, Finland observes 15 public holidays, beginning with New Year's Day on and ending with Boxing Day on . These are official days on which government offices, banks, schools, and most businesses are closed.
Holidays here include a mix of fixed dates (such as New Year's Day and national independence days) and variable dates (such as religious holidays that follow lunar or ecclesiastical calendars). Variable holidays may shift by 1–2 days from year to year.
Finland is unusual in fixing two holidays to Saturdays by definition: Midsummer Day always falls on the Saturday between 20 and 26 June, and All Saints' Day on the Saturday between 31 October and 6 November, so neither ever costs a working day. Weekend collisions elsewhere in the calendar are not compensated, though Midsummer Eve, a Friday, is a de facto day off for most of the country.
