The Christian holidays are <i><a href="/wiki/Yule" title="Yule">jul</a></i> (<a href="/wiki/Christmas" title="Christmas">Christmas</a>), <i>trettondedag jul</i> (<a href="/wiki/Epiphany_(Christian)" class="mw-redirect" title="Epiphany (Christian)">Epiphany</a>), <i>påsk</i> (<a href="/wiki/Easter" title="Easter">Easter</a>), <i>Kristi himmelsfärds dag</i> (<a href="/wiki/Ascension_Day" class="mw-redirect" title="Ascension Day">Ascension Day</a>), <i>pingstdagen</i> (<a href="/wiki/Pentecost" title="Pentecost">Pentecost</a>), and <i>alla helgons dag</i> (<a href="/wiki/All_Saints%27_Day" title="All Saints' Day">All Saints' Day</a>). The non-Christian holidays are: <i>nyårsdagen</i> (<a href="/wiki/New_Year%27s_Day" title="New Year's Day">New Year's Day</a>), <i>första maj</i> (<a href="/wiki/International_Workers%27_Day" title="International Workers' Day">International Workers' Day</a>), <i>Sveriges nationaldag</i> (<a href="/wiki/National_Day_of_Sweden" title="National Day of Sweden">National Day</a>), and <i>midsommar</i> (<a href="/wiki/Midsummer" title="Midsummer">Midsummer</a>). Midsummer is, however, officially also a Christian holiday to celebrate John the Baptist's birthday. </p><p>In addition to this, all Sundays are official holidays, but they are not as important as the <i>main</i> holidays. The names of the Sundays follow the liturgical calendar and they should be categorized as Christian holidays. <a href="/wiki/Easter_Sunday" class="mw-redirect" title="Easter Sunday">Easter Sunday</a> and <a href="/wiki/Pentecost" title="Pentecost">Pentecost</a> are always on Sundays, but they are seen more like <i>main</i> holidays than ordinary Sundays. When the standard working week in Sweden was reduced to 40 hours by the <a href="/wiki/Riksdag" title="Riksdag">Riksdag</a>, all Saturdays became <a href="/wiki/De_facto" title="De facto">de facto</a> public holidays. <a href="/wiki/Holy_Saturday" title="Holy Saturday">Holy Saturday</a>, <a href="/wiki/Midsummer%27s_Eve" class="mw-redirect" title="Midsummer's Eve">Midsummer's Eve</a>, <a href="/wiki/Christmas_Eve" title="Christmas Eve">Christmas Eve</a>, and <a href="/wiki/New_Year%27s_Eve" title="New Year's Eve">New Year's Eve</a> are also de facto holidays. </p><p>Part of the Swedish tradition is the celebration of <i>Lucia</i> (<a href="/wiki/Saint_Lucy_Day" class="mw-redirect" title="Saint Lucy Day">Saint Lucia Day</a>). She is the only saint to be celebrated in Lutheran Sweden (as well as those parts of <a href="/wiki/Norway" title="Norway">Norway</a> and <a href="/wiki/Finland" title="Finland">Finland</a>, where Swedish influence has historically been prominent). The celebration, which, however, is not a public holiday, always takes place on 13 December and retains many pre-Christian traditions. The same is also true for many holidays in Sweden. </p><p>In Sweden, a public holiday is sometimes referred to as <i>röd dag</i> (red day),<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> as it is printed in red in most calendars. It is quite common for some businesses to close at noon the day before certain holidays, and also if a holiday falls on a Tuesday or a Thursday, Swedes will commonly take off the <i>klämdag</i> (squashed in days, or squeeze day) that falls between the holiday and the weekend. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Tradition">Tradition</h2></div> <p>In Swedish tradition many holidays have their main celebrations not on the <i>Day</i> but on the <i>Eve</i> of the holiday, meaning one day earlier. This is especially significant on Christmas Eve, Holy Saturday, and Midsummer Eve, but also on New Year's Eve; however, in this case it is not really unique. Christmas Eve, Midsummer Eve, and New Year's Eve might very well be the single most important holidays during the entire year for the Swedish. These days are however only de facto holidays. There are also de facto half-day holidays (with some variation depending on employer): <a href="/wiki/Twelfth_Night_(holiday)" title="Twelfth Night (holiday)">Twelfth Night</a>, <a href="/wiki/Maundy_Thursday" title="Maundy Thursday">Maundy Thursday</a>, <a href="/wiki/Walpurgis_Night" title="Walpurgis Night">Walpurgis Night</a>, the day before Ascension Day, and the day before All Saints' Day. </p><p>The Swedish calendar also provides for special <a href="/wiki/Flag_flying_days_in_Sweden" title="Flag flying days in Sweden">flag flying days</a>. Flag flying days are in some cases official holidays or the birthdays and namedays for the <a href="/wiki/Royal_family_of_Sweden" class="mw-redirect" title="Royal family of Sweden">Royal family</a> and <i>informal</i> holidays like <i><a href="/wiki/Gustavus_Adolphus_Day" title="Gustavus Adolphus Day">Gustavus Adolphus Day</a></i> (6 November) or the Nobel Day (10 December). There is no formal connection between flag flying days and holiday. Many flag flying days are ordinary <a href="/wiki/Working_time" title="Working time">workdays</a>. </p><p>The official <a href="/wiki/National_holiday_of_Sweden" class="mw-redirect" title="National holiday of Sweden">National holiday of Sweden</a> is celebrated on 6 June, a status which it was finally granted in 2005, removing <a href="/wiki/Whit_Monday" title="Whit Monday">Whit Monday</a> as a public holiday. The <a href="/wiki/Name_days_in_Sweden" title="Name days in Sweden">Name days in Sweden</a> calendar is also denoted. It has a long history, originally a calendar of saints, some names have stuck throughout centuries while others have been modernized. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Several_observances_at_once">Several observances at once</h2></div> <p>There are instances where official holidays, de facto half days, official flagdays and other observances clash and several celebrations may run concurrently. One such case is the 30 April which is immediately followed by 1 May. 30 April is a de facto half day because it is the Walpurgis Night and the main day for celebrations to the arrival of the spring season. The following day is actually Walpurgis Day; however, in the calendar it is primarily denoted as May Day, or Labor Day. This means that depending on your sympathies you may either celebrate it as May Day or as Walpurgis Day. In addition to this 30 April is also the <a href="/wiki/Carl_XVI_Gustaf_of_Sweden" class="mw-redirect" title="Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden">king's</a> birthday and an official flag flying day. Also 1 May is an official flag flying day by virtue of May Day <i>or</i> Walpurgis day. If either day would fall on a Sunday, that day would also in that respect be an official holiday and a Christian holiday, as one of the Sundays following Easter. </p><p>In 2008, due to the unusually early Easter, Ascension Day occurred on 1 May. This was the first time this happened since May Day became a public holiday in 1939. The next time these holidays overlap is in 2160. The next time Ascension Day will coincide with Walpurgis Night on 30 April (which is the earliest possible day) is in 2285. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Festivities">Festivities</h2></div> <p>See <a href="/wiki/Swedish_festivities" title="Swedish festivities">Swedish festivities</a> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="List_of_public_holidays_in_Sweden">List of public holidays in Sweden</h2></div> <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th>English name</th> <th>Local name</th> <th>Date of observation<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></th> <th><a href="/wiki/Moveable_feast" title="Moveable feast">Moveable</a> date </th></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/New_Year%27s_Day" title="New Year's Day">New Year's Day</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Nyårsdagen</i></span></td> <td>1 January</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Epiphany_(holiday)" title="Epiphany (holiday)">Epiphany</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Trettondedag jul</i></span></td> <td>6 January</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Good_Friday" title="Good Friday">Good Friday</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Långfredagen</i></span></td> <td>Friday before Easter Sunday</td> <td>7 April 2023 <br /><b>29 March 2024</b><br />18 April 2025 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Easter_Monday" title="Easter Monday">Easter Monday</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Annandag påsk</i></span></td> <td>Monday after Easter Sunday</td> <td>10 April 2023 <br /><b>1 April 2024</b><br />21 April 2025 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/International_Workers%27_Day" title="International Workers' Day">International Workers' Day</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Första Maj</i></span></td> <td>1 May</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Ascension_Day" class="mw-redirect" title="Ascension Day">Ascension Day</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Kristi himmelsfärds dag</i></span></td> <td>Thursday, 39 days after Easter Sunday</td> <td>18 May 2023 <br /><b>9 May 2024</b><br />29 May 2025 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/National_Day_of_Sweden" title="National Day of Sweden">National Day of Sweden</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Sveriges nationaldag</i></span></td> <td>6 June</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Midsummer%27s_Day" class="mw-redirect" title="Midsummer's Day">Midsummer's Day</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Midsommardagen</i></span></td> <td>Saturday during the period 20–26 June</td> <td>24 June 2023<br /><b>22 June 2024</b><br />21 June 2025 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/All_Saints%27_Day" title="All Saints' Day">All Saints' Day</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Alla helgons dag</i></span></td> <td>Saturday during the period 31 October – 6 November</td> <td>4 November 2023 <br /><b>2 November 2024</b><br />1 November 2025 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Christmas_Day" class="mw-redirect" title="Christmas Day">Christmas Day</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Juldagen</i></span></td> <td>25 December</td> <td> </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/St._Stephen%27s_Day" class="mw-redirect" title="St. Stephen's Day">Second Day of Christmas</a></td> <td><span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">Annandag jul</i></span></td> <td>26 December</td> <td> </td></tr></tbody></table> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Public_holidays_always_on_Sunday">Public holidays always on Sunday</h3></div> <p>Some public holidays in Sweden always occur on Sundays but are, in fact, official public holidays.

It is, in fact, quite common to leave work before Christmas Eve and then not come back to work until around 10 January (after the weekend after Epiphany). Most people, however, work at least some of these days. For instance, in 2024, Christmas Eve falls on a Tuesday, with Christmas Day falling on a Wednesday and the Second Day of Christmas on a Thursday. Thus, some employees are automatically allowed the day off (as they are <span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">klämdagar</i></span>) on the Monday before Christmas Eve (23 December) and the Friday after the Second Day of Christmas (27 December), while others choose to take those days off as vacation. The same goes for the Monday before New Year's Eve (30 December). However, the Thursday and Friday after New Year's Day (2 and 3 January 2025) are not considered <span title="Swedish-language text"><i lang="sv">klämdagar</i></span>, since they are two workdays falling next to each other. Thus, if people wanted those days off, they would have had to take them as vacation. As most people in Sweden are not required to work on Saturdays or Sundays, people could work their last day on 20 December, having taken two or five vacation days, and then not have to return to work until 7 January (the Tuesday after Epiphany). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="See_also">See also</h2></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Flag_flying_days_in_Sweden" title="Flag flying days in Sweden">Flag flying days in Sweden</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Name_days_in_Sweden" title="Name days in Sweden">Name days in Sweden</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-public-holiday-law-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-public-holiday-law_1-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.riksdagen.se/sv/Dokument-Lagar/Lagar/Svenskforfattningssamling/Lag-1989253-om-allmanna-hel_sfs-1989-253/">"Lag (1989:253) om allmänna helgdagar"</a>. <a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_Sweden" class="mw-redirect" title="Parliament of Sweden">Parliament of Sweden</a>. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20121112005954/http://www.riksdagen.se/sv/Dokument-Lagar/Lagar/Svenskforfattningssamling/Lag-1989253-om-allmanna-hel_sfs-1989-253/">Archived</a> from the original on 12 November 2012<span class="reference-accessdate">.
