About Public Holidays in North Korea

This annual page applies the researched North Korea holiday framework to the protected 2027 date records. It keeps the calendar separate from evergreen history and celebration material and preserves official, projected, optional and subnational qualifications recorded for individual dates.

Importance of Public Holidays

8 dates fall on a weekend, including Korean New Year, Daeboreum, and Founding Day of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army. A weekend date does not itself prove a substitute weekday; follow the holiday row and the applicable official rule. The year includes New Year's Day, Korean New Year, Founding Day of the Korean People's Army, and Day of the Shining Star, among the dates most useful for advance scheduling.

How Holidays Are Celebrated

The 2027 sequence differs through its actual dates and weekdays. New Year's Day, Korean New Year, Founding Day of the Korean People's Army, and Day of the Shining Star appear in calendar order; use each linked holiday detail for its meaning and scope rather than treating this page as a duplicate celebration guide.
