Holiday calendar 2028: how to use it

A holiday calendar 2028 is most useful when you print it early in the year. Families can plan vacations around long weekends and school breaks, businesses can set opening hours and staff rotas, and teachers can see which festivals students may celebrate. Each country page shows the observed weekday off when a holiday falls on a weekend, which matters in 2028 because New Year’s Day, Canada Day and several other dates land on a Saturday. Start with your own country, add a festival calendar if your family or workplace needs it, and print a year at a glance for the wall.

Combine holiday calendars in one printable

Families, schools and businesses often need more than one list. In the calendar maker, choose a country under Holidays and a festival calendar under Festivals, and both are marked on the same page, with different colors. Some useful combinations:

• International schools: the host country’s public holidays plus the main festivals of the student community.
• Teams across countries: print one calendar per office so everyone can see when colleagues are away.
• Families with two cultures: for example UK bank holidays with Hindu festivals, or US holidays with Jewish holidays.
• Travel planning: check the destination’s public holidays, when shops and offices may close and prices rise.

You can also add your own dates, such as birthdays and school terms, and turn on moon phases, which set many festival dates.

Why holiday dates change each year

Some holidays keep the same date every year, such as Christmas on December 25, but fall on a different weekday. Others follow a rule, such as Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November in the US, and move between dates. Religious festivals that follow the moon move the most: Islamic holidays come about 11 days earlier each year, while Jewish, Hindu and Chinese festivals move back and forth within the same season because their calendars add a leap month every few years.

How the dates are worked out

Fixed-date and rule-based holidays (such as “the last Monday of May”) are calculated from each country’s official rules, including the substitute days given when a holiday falls on a weekend. Lunar and lunisolar dates (Jewish, Islamic, Hindu and Chinese festivals) are converted from their calendars. Islamic dates are marked expected because the official date depends on the sighting of the moon, and Hindu dates can differ by a day between regions. Wikipedia’s public holiday article explains how holidays are set around the world.

Holiday calendars: frequently asked questions

Can I print a calendar with two countries’ holidays?

Choose one country under Holidays and one festival calendar under Festivals; both are marked on the same calendar. For two countries, print one calendar for each.

Which years are covered?

The holiday pages cover 2027 and 2028. The calendar maker has holidays and festivals for 2025 to 2030.

Are Islamic holiday dates exact?

No. They are expected dates; the official date depends on the sighting of the new moon and can move by a day.

Do the holiday calendars include substitute days?

Yes. When a public holiday falls on a weekend and the country gives a weekday off instead, the observed date is listed too.

Are the holiday calendars free?

Yes. Every page and printable calendar is free, with no sign-up.
