How to use these calendars
Choose a country, check the year displayed, then filter the calendar by holiday type or quarter. Public holidays, religious occasions, observances and market dates are different categories: an observance does not necessarily mean a day off or a market closure.
Use the notes beside each date to check regional and observed-day details. Dates marked estimated may change following an official announcement. Confirm time-sensitive plans with the relevant government, bank or exchange.
