How federal holidays work
Federal holidays are set by 5 U.S.C. 6103 and apply to federal employees; most banks, schools and many employers follow them, but private employers are not required to give the day off. Five holidays are fixed dates (New Year's Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Veterans Day, Christmas); the rest always fall on a Monday, except Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November.
Inauguration Day (January 20 after a presidential election, next in 2029) is also a holiday for federal employees in the Washington, D.C. area. To count working days between two dates with these holidays removed, use the business day calculator.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many federal holidays are there in 2030?
There are 11 federal holidays in 2030.
What happens when a federal holiday falls on a weekend?
Under federal law, a holiday that falls on a Saturday is observed on the preceding Friday, and one that falls on a Sunday is observed on the following Monday. Holidays defined as a Monday or Thursday never fall on a weekend.
Are banks and the stock market closed on federal holidays?
Most banks follow the Federal Reserve schedule and close on federal holidays, but when a holiday falls on a Saturday, Federal Reserve Banks stay open the Friday before. The NYSE and Nasdaq follow their own calendar: they are open on Columbus Day and Veterans Day but closed on Good Friday.
What is the newest federal holiday?
Juneteenth National Independence Day (June 19) became the 11th federal holiday in 2021.
