Frequently Asked Questions
Where does this holiday data come from?
Our holiday data is sourced from the Calendarific API, a professional service that aggregates public holiday information from official government sources worldwide. This ensures the data is accurate and reliable.
Why is a holiday I know about missing from the list?
This tool focuses on displaying official public or national holidays—days when government offices and most businesses are typically closed. It may not include regional holidays (specific to a state or province), optional observances, or cultural festivals that are not official non-working days.
How often is the data refreshed?
The holiday data for each country is fetched for the entire year and then cached on our server for a period of one week. This ensures that the page loads quickly for you while still allowing for any new, official holiday declarations to be reflected in a timely manner.
