JSON · Add to calendar

1. Fri, 01 Jan 2027New Year's Day

   Albania’s calendar lists Viti i Ri, or New Year’s Day, for Friday, January 1, 2027. January 1 is the first day of the Gregorian calendar year, a widely observed civil occasion. The supplied calendar identifies the date and public classification, while the general context explains the date’s place in the Gregorian calendar. It does not establish specific Albanian customs or how broadly individuals observe the holiday, so this entry avoids assuming either.

2. Mon, 04 Jan 2027New Year's Day Holiday

   The supplied Albanian calendar lists Monday, January 4, as Viti i Ri (New Year’s Day Holiday). Because January 2, 2027, falls on a Saturday, January 4 may be an observed or substitute day associated with the New Year holiday period. The record does not explain that relationship or confirm the applicable rule. Treat January 4 as the date listed by this calendar, rather than as a separately verified anniversary or a confirmed nationwide closure.

3. Tue, 09 Mar 2027Eid al-Fitr (Holiday of Breaking the Fast)

   Albania’s calendar lists Dita e Bajramit të Madh, or Eid al-Fitr, on Tuesday, March 9, 2027. Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting. Its date follows the lunar calendar, so a calendar prediction may differ from the date confirmed by religious authorities. The supplied entry establishes the listed date and public classification; it does not state how the date was determined or describe local observance.

4. Mon, 15 Mar 2027Summer Day

   The supplied calendar lists Dita e Verës (Summer Day) as a public holiday on Monday, March 15, 2027. In Albania, the observance is commonly associated with March 14; that date falls on a Sunday in 2027, so the listed Monday may be an adjusted day off. The record itself does not explain the date shift. The supplied context excerpt concerns a song with the same English title and does not provide information about the Albanian holiday.

5. Mon, 22 Mar 2027Nowruz (Persian New Year)

   Albania’s calendar lists Dita e Nevruzit, or Nowruz, on Monday, March 22, 2027. Nowruz marks the Persian New Year and the beginning of spring in traditions that follow the Persian calendar. In Albania, Nevruz also has particular significance for the Bektashi community. The supplied record confirms the listed date and public classification, but does not describe local ceremonies or explain how the date was set for 2027.

6. Sun, 28 Mar 2027Easter Sunday

   The calendar lists Pashkët Katolike (Catholic Easter Sunday) on March 28, 2027, as a public holiday in Albania. Easter is a central Christian feast commemorating the resurrection of Jesus; its date changes from year to year rather than remaining fixed on the civil calendar. The supplied record identifies this as the Catholic observance, distinct from the separately listed Orthodox Easter. It does not provide details about services or individual practices in Albania.

7. Mon, 29 Mar 2027Easter Monday

   Albania’s calendar lists Hënen e Pashkët Katolike (Catholic Easter Monday) on March 29, 2027. In Western Christianity, Easter Monday is the second day of Eastertide and follows Easter Sunday; in 2027, the calendar lists the Sunday observance on March 28. The supplied record classifies Monday as a public holiday but gives no account of Albanian services, customs, or the extent to which people observe it.

8. Sat, 01 May 2027Labour Day

   The supplied calendar lists Dita ndërkombëtare e punonjësve (International Workers’ Day, or Labour Day) on Saturday, May 1, 2027, as a public holiday in Albania. The general context notes that May 1 is associated with Labour Day in many countries and with the labour movement. The supplied material does not establish any specific Albanian events or explain whether another day off applies because the date falls on a Saturday.

9. Sun, 02 May 2027Orthodox Easter Sunday

   Albania’s calendar lists Pashkët Ortodokse (Orthodox Easter Sunday) on Sunday, May 2, 2027, as a public holiday. This is a separate calendar entry from Catholic Easter Sunday, which the same source lists for March 28. The listed date identifies the Orthodox observance for 2027, but the supplied material does not explain the calculation used or provide details about worship and other practices among Orthodox Christians in Albania.

10. Mon, 03 May 2027Orthodox Easter Monday

    The supplied calendar lists Hënen e Pashkët Ortodokse (Orthodox Easter Monday) on Monday, May 3, 2027, as a public holiday in Albania. It follows the calendar’s listing of Orthodox Easter Sunday on May 2. This is a distinct entry from Catholic Easter Monday, which falls in March that year. The supplied record does not describe Albanian religious practices or explain how the Orthodox dates were calculated.

11. Sun, 16 May 2027Eid ul-Adha (Feast of Sacrifice)

    Albania’s calendar lists Dita e Kurban Bajramit (Eid al-Adha, or the Feast of Sacrifice) on Sunday, May 16, 2027. Eid al-Adha is an important Islamic observance associated with the story of Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son. Its date follows the Islamic lunar calendar, and the listed date may depend on religious calendar confirmation. The supplied record gives no further detail about local observance or date confirmation.

12. Tue, 19 Oct 2027Mother Teresa Day

    The calendar lists Dita e Lumturimit te Nene Terezës (Mother Teresa Day) on Tuesday, October 19, 2027, as a public holiday in Albania. The supplied context notes that Mother Teresa has been commemorated internationally for her work with people living in poverty. It does not explain the significance of October 19 in Albania or the wording of the Albanian holiday name. Those details should be checked against an Albanian official or cultural source rather than inferred from the calendar entry.

13. Mon, 29 Nov 2027Flag and Independence Day

    The supplied calendar lists Dita e Flamurit dhe e Pavarësisë (Flag and Independence Day) on Monday, November 29, 2027. Albania’s Flag and Independence Day is commonly associated with November 28, which falls on a Sunday in 2027. The listed Monday may therefore be an adjusted day off, but the record does not explain the date or confirm the relevant rule. The calendar also lists Liberation Day on November 29, so the two entries coincide on its schedule.

14. Mon, 29 Nov 2027Liberation Day

    Albania’s calendar lists Dita e Çlirimit të Shqipërisë nga pushtuesit nazifashistë (Liberation Day) on Monday, November 29, 2027, as a public holiday. The supplied context explains that a Liberation Day generally marks the end of an occupation or the fall of a regime. It does not provide a country-specific historical account, so this entry does not add claims about the events commemorated or how the date was selected.

15. Wed, 08 Dec 2027Youth Day

    The calendar lists Dita Kombëtare e Rinisë (National Youth Day) on Wednesday, December 8, 2027, as a public holiday in Albania. The supplied context describes Youth Days generally as commemorations of young people, but does not explain the Albanian observance or its historical background. The calendar establishes the date and listed classification only. For a country-specific account of why December 8 was chosen, consult an official Albanian source rather than relying on the general description.

16. Mon, 27 Dec 2027Christmas Day

    The supplied calendar lists Krishtlindjet (Christmas Day) on Monday, December 27, 2027, as a public holiday in Albania. The general context identifies December 25 as the date on which most Christians observe Christmas in the Gregorian calendar; in 2027, December 25 falls on a Saturday. December 27 may be an adjusted day off, but the calendar does not explain the date. Its listing should not be taken as evidence that Christmas itself falls on December 27.
