The extra day on 2 January 2026 was announced for the euro changeover; it is not an annual holiday. National Awakeners Day is not a general nationwide closure.
Banks
Check the bank's opening and payment-system calendar; public holidays alone do not specify settlement cut-offs.
Schools
This is a public-holiday calendar, not a school-term calendar. School breaks and local closures require the education authority's schedule.
Practical planning
Use the dated calendar and long-weekend planner to identify busy periods, then check local transport and visitor opening hours.
