Practical uses
PTO and leave planning
Use this list to plan your annual leave around US public holidays. Combining a holiday with a weekend can create longer breaks — see the us long weekends in 2025 for pre-built three-day and four-day weekends.
Payroll and deadlines
Public holidays affect payroll processing deadlines and direct deposit schedules. When a holiday falls on a weekday, it reduces the number of business days in that period. See business days in 2025 for net working day counts per month.
School and childcare
Public holidays typically mean school closures, but exact dates vary by state, province or region. Check your local school district or education authority for the full academic calendar.
Travel and events
Book travel early around major holidays like New Year's Day and Christmas Day when demand — and prices — are typically highest.
