Long weekends 2027

2 times a public holiday lies close to a weekend – with a little leave it becomes a long weekend:

Take leave	Off	Days of leave	Days off	Ratio	Occasion
Mon 23 Aug, Tue 24 Aug	21 Aug – 25 Aug 2027	2	5	2.5	Independence Declaration Day
Thu 26 Aug, Fri 27 Aug	25 Aug – 29 Aug 2027	2	5	2.5	Independence Declaration Day

Counted are gaps of up to four working days between a public holiday and the weekend or another public holiday. "Ratio" = days off per day of leave. Weekends follow the local working week.

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.
