Public holiday information

Italy's national calendar includes Republic Day on 2 June, Liberation Day on 25 April and St Francis of Assisi on 4 October. Law 151 of 2025 restores 4 October as a national holiday from 2026; a Sunday occurrence does not create an extra Monday closure. Patron-saint holidays depend on the municipality and are not added to the national calendar. National Unity Sunday is an observance rather than another weekday closure.

Offices

Italian national holiday. Municipal patron-saint holidays require a separate local calendar; no automatic weekday replacement is added.

Banks

Use the bank or payment-system operating notice for branch hours and settlement cut-offs. The public-holiday list does not certify each institution's closure.

Schools

Public holidays are separate from school terms and vacations. No new school-break calendar is certified in this review; use the responsible education authority or school schedule.

Practical planning

Use the calendar and dated regional exceptions before booking. Long-weekend results use stored applicable occurrences; provisional dates and local exceptions require the stated qualification.
