About this calendar
In 2027, United Kingdom observes 15 public holidays, beginning with New Year's Day on and ending with Substitute Bank Holiday for 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.
The UK works Monday to Friday. Bank holidays that fall on a weekend do not disappear: a substitute weekday, normally the following Monday, is proclaimed instead. That is why Christmas period bank holidays wander around the calendar from year to year.
