Before you plan
Which holiday calendar does this page cover?
England and Wales bank holidays (not the whole UK). This list covers England and Wales only. Scotland and Northern Ireland have different bank holidays; use the linked GOV.UK lists for those jurisdictions.
Are any dates or entitlements still unconfirmed?
December 27 and 28 are substitute bank holidays for Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Employers do not have to give paid leave on bank or public holidays; check your contract.
Does this change the current leave planner?
No. This is a separate 2027 reference calendar. The existing holiday guides, countdowns, and leave planners remain on their current-year data. Do not use a 2026 leave plan for a 2027 date.
