2028 at a glance
Every day of the year. Filled squares are public holidays; the pale ones are weekends. A holiday touching a weekend is a long one.
Holidays you have, and days off you get
These are the two different questions this page answers. A country can have a long list of public holidays and still give you fewer days away from work than a neighbour with a shorter list, purely because of which weekday they fall on. Only some countries substitute a weekday when a holiday lands on a weekend; where they do not, the holiday simply passes.
Sources and last check
Times, offsets and sun positions on this page are computed live from the IANA timezone database and the NOAA solar algorithm, so they do not depend on the review dates below.

Not covered:Public holidays only, including statutory substitute days; regional and observance days are excluded. 21 of our countries are not in the dataset and have no calendar. Regenerate on every date-holidays upgrade: the 25 July build silently lacked Korea's substitute days because the installed package predated them. Known upstream gap: El Salvador — the source lists 8 public days where Nager.Date confirms ~20, and files New Year's Day as an observance; we publish what the source holds rather than invent, and the weekly Nager run tracks the gap.
FAQ
How many public holidays does Chile have in 2028?
16, of which 12 fall on a working day and 4 on a weekend.
Why does it matter which fall on a weekend?
Because a holiday on a Saturday is a holiday you do not get. 4 of Chile's land on one, and most countries do not move them.
