How long weekends are calculated
A long weekend forms whenever a public holiday falls on a Friday or a Monday, giving a 3-day weekend. It runs longer when holidays stack — Good Friday plus Easter Monday gives four days — and only statutory days off count, never days that are merely customary. All of these need no annual leave.

Denmark has no single statutory list: the days off are the Folkekirke’s holy days plus 1 January. This is the Act that abolished Store Bededag from 2024, the most recent change to that set.
