How many public holidays are there in 2027?+

In 2027, there are 16 public holidays: 13 public holidays and 3 additional non-working days to compensate for holidays falling on a Saturday or Sunday.

In addition to them, in the calendar you will find 6 suggestions for taking leave: working days between a holiday and a weekend, which make your break significantly longer.

What happens when a holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday?+

When a public holiday falls on a non-working day, the first working day after it becomes a non-working day.

In 2027, this applies to three days: May 4 (Tuesday), because May 1 falls on a Saturday, and December 27 and 28 (Monday and Tuesday), because Christmas falls on a Saturday and Sunday.

When are the Easter holidays in 2027?+

Orthodox Easter is on May 2nd (Sunday). This year, the Easter holidays coincide with Labor Day, so we get 5 consecutive days without needing leave:

April 30 (Friday) · May 1 (Saturday) · May 2 (Sunday) · May 3 (Monday) · May 4 (Tuesday).

When is the best opportunity for a long break with little leave in 2027?+

At the beginning of May. Between Easter and St. George's Day (May 6, Thursday) there are only two working days left: May 5 and May 7. With 2 days of leave you rest 10 days in a row, from April 30 to May 9.

The second major opportunity is around Christmas. From December 24 to 28 we are resting anyway, and with 3 days of leave (December 29, 30 and 31) the rest continues until January 3, 2028, for a total of 11 days. January 3 is also a holiday because January 1, 2028 falls on a Saturday.

How many working days are there in 2027?+

249 working days for a standard 5-day work week, or 1992 working hours for an 8-hour workday.

This is the same number of working days as in 2026

Is November 1st a day off? +

No. The Day of the National Enlighteners is not an official holiday. It is a non-school day for all educational institutions, so students do not attend classes, but for employees it is a regular working day.

Can I add the holidays to Google Calendar? +

Yes. Click the "Add to calendar" button, download the file and import it into Google Calendar (Settings → Add calendar → Import). All holidays will appear automatically.

The file also works with Apple Calendar and Outlook.

Is work on a public holiday paid double? +

Yes. By law, for every hour worked on a public holiday, you receive at least double pay. With summarized working time accounting, the rules are more specific, so it is good to consult for your specific case.
