Before you plan

Which holiday calendar does this page cover?

United States federal employee holidays (observed dates). This is OPM's federal-employee calendar, generally for Monday–Friday schedules. It is not a universal private-sector or state holiday entitlement.

Are any dates or entitlements still unconfirmed?

Observed dates differ from the anniversary dates for Juneteenth, Independence Day and Christmas. December 31, 2027 is New Year's Day 2028 observed; OPM publishes it in its 2028 list. Check your employer and work schedule before treating a listed date as a day off. State and local holidays are not included.

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.

Only source-verified lists are included. Other country calendars are unchanged; a missing 2027 page does not mean there are no holidays.
