How this list is built
- This is the national public-holiday list for each year; it does not include state, province, or other subdivision holidays.
- Some public holidays fall on different dates in different nations of United Kingdom — for example, a bank holiday held on different days in each nation. This shared national list shows only the dates common across the whole country, so a nation-specific date isn't listed here.
- This country's non-working days are checked against its government's own records. The calendar dataset behind the dates is credited on the About page.
- Each entry is tagged by type: public and bank holidays alongside observances and optional or school days, which aren't statutory public holidays.
