Counting Saturday and Sunday as the weekend, 10 of the 11 holiday dates in 2026 fall on a working day and 1 on a weekend.
Counting Saturday and Sunday as the weekend, 10 of the 11 holiday dates in 2026 fall on a working day and 1 on a weekend. The most common weekday for a holiday is Monday or Friday, with 3 dates.
Six of the 11 dates land on a Monday or Friday, next to the weekend, so they make a long weekend without using any leave: Good Friday on Friday, April 3, Labor Day on Friday, May 1, Vesak Day (observed) on Monday, June 1, National Day (observed) on Monday, August 10, Diwali (observed) on Monday, November 9 and Christmas Day on Friday, December 25. Two more holidays sit one working day away from the weekend, so a single day of leave turns each into a four-day break: New Year's Day on Thursday, January 1 (take Friday off) and Chinese New Year on Tuesday, February 17 (take Monday off).
February and May are the busiest months, with 2 holiday dates. July, September and October have no public holiday at all. The longest stretch between two holidays is 91 days, from National Day (observed) on August 10 to Diwali (observed) on November 9, the natural window for a longer break.
3 entries are observed, substitute or bridge days that move holidays onto working days, for example Vesak Day (observed) on June 1.
2027 brings 11 public holidays, the same number as 2026. 8 of the 11 dates fall on a working day, and 5 land next to the weekend.
