Luxembourg has 11 national public holidays in 2026 that apply everywhere, and 11 distinct dates once regional public holidays are included. The next public holiday in Luxembourg is All Saints' Day on 1 November 2026, which is in 3 days.
These days appear on many calendars as public holidays, and sources genuinely disagree about them. Where they conflict, we follow the official government or statutory source and name it below, so a day is only counted in the totals on this page if the law actually gives it to you. That is why our figure can be lower than the one you see elsewhere.
Good Friday (Karfreideg)Not a day off
What the law says: A bank holiday, not a legal one. The government states plainly that a jour férié bancaire "n’est pas un jour férié légal".
In practice: Banks and many offices close, and plenty of collective agreements grant it — but it carries none of the legal protections of the 11 statutory days.

Why is Luxembourg's 2026 public holiday total lower here than on some other calendars?+
Because 1 day that many calendars count is not a statutory public holiday in Luxembourg in 2026: Good Friday. It is listed on this page and labelled "Not a day off", but left out of the 11-day total, because a day is only counted here if the law actually gives it to you. Where sources conflict we follow the official government or statutory source and name it, so you can see the disagreement rather than be puzzled by it.
