Not a public holiday in every region, but in Nukufetau: Nukufetau Day.
For comparison: in 2027 the number of public holidays ranges from 14 (Nukulaelae) to 16 (Funafuti and Nanumea). Nukufetau lies in between with 15.
Days marked "observed" are substitute days off when a holiday falls on a weekend. Holidays based on a lunar calendar can shift by a day once the official announcement is made.
Dates are generated from the open-source library python-holidays and automatically cross-checked against Nager.Date and the public Google Calendar holiday calendars; every holiday on a working day must be confirmed by a second source. Official announcements take precedence, especially for holidays that depend on the moon or are declared at short notice.
