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

   France’s calendar lists Jour de l’an, or New Year’s Day, as a public holiday on 1 January 2027. The supplied context explains that 1 January is the first day of the Gregorian calendar year. The calendar entry supports the date and public classification; it does not specify particular French customs or how widely people observe the day. This entry is about the listed holiday, rather than other New Year celebrations tied to lunar or lunisolar calendars.

2. Fri, 26 Mar 2027Good Friday · GE-BR

   The calendar lists Vendredi saint (Good Friday) on 26 March 2027 as public in region GE-BR. The supplied context describes Good Friday as a solemn Christian observance commemorating Jesus’s crucifixion and death, and notes that its date changes from year to year. The listing is regional, not evidence that the holiday applies throughout France or uniformly across every locality in the named region. The supplied material does not establish local observance practices.

3. Fri, 26 Mar 2027Good Friday · GE-HR

   The calendar lists Vendredi saint (Good Friday) on 26 March 2027 as public in region GE-HR. The supplied context describes Good Friday as a solemn Christian observance commemorating Jesus’s crucifixion and death, and notes that its date changes from year to year. The listing is regional, not evidence that the holiday applies throughout France or uniformly across every locality in the named region. The supplied material does not establish local observance practices.

4. Fri, 26 Mar 2027Good Friday · GE-MO

   The calendar lists Vendredi saint (Good Friday) on 26 March 2027 as public in region GE-MO. The supplied context describes Good Friday as a solemn Christian observance commemorating Jesus’s crucifixion and death, and notes that its date changes from year to year. The listing is regional, not evidence that the holiday applies throughout France or uniformly across every locality in the named region. The supplied material does not establish local observance practices.

5. Mon, 29 Mar 2027Easter Monday

   France’s calendar lists Lundi de Pâques (Easter Monday) as a public holiday on 29 March 2027. The supplied context identifies it as the second day of Eastertide in Western Christianity and notes that the date follows the movable Easter feast. The calendar supports this date and its public classification in France. Neither source establishes specific French customs, local service arrangements, or how individuals mark the day, so those details are not assumed here.

6. Tue, 27 Apr 2027Abolition of slavery · YT

   The calendar lists Abolition de l’esclavage (Abolition of slavery) as a public holiday in region YT on 27 April 2027. The attached explanatory excerpt concerns the history of slavery in the United States, so it cannot verify the history or local significance of this Mayotte listing. The calendar establishes the entry’s name, date, region, and classification only. A Mayotte or French government source would be needed to confirm the commemorative context and the precise scope of the observance.

7. Sat, 01 May 2027Labour Day

   France’s calendar lists Fête du Travail (Labour Day) as a public holiday on 1 May 2027. The supplied context notes that Labour Day is linked with International Workers’ Day on 1 May in many countries and is associated broadly with the labour movement. This supports the date and general context, but the excerpt does not detail France-specific history or observance. The calendar classification is the evidence here for its public-holiday listing in France.

8. Thu, 06 May 2027Ascension Day

   France’s calendar lists Ascension as a public holiday on 6 May 2027. The supplied context excerpt is only a list of possible meanings for “Ascension”; it does not establish the Christian feast’s meaning or describe how it is observed in France. The date and public classification are therefore the facts supported by the calendar record. For fuller context, an authoritative French religious or government source could verify the feast’s significance and the holiday’s national status.

9. Sat, 08 May 2027Victory Day

   France’s calendar lists Victoire 1945 (Victory Day) as a public holiday on 8 May 2027. The supplied context explains that Victory Day is a name used for national holidays commemorating victory in war or liberation from occupation, and notes its use among several countries connected with the Allied victory in the Second World War. The calendar provides the French name and date; the excerpt does not set out France-specific ceremonies or other local details.

10. Mon, 17 May 2027Pentecost Monday

    France’s calendar lists Lundi de Pentecôte (Pentecost Monday) as a public holiday on 17 May 2027. The supplied context identifies the observance as the Monday after Pentecost, a movable feast whose date depends on Easter. This provides general Christian-calendar context but does not describe specifically French practices or how the public holiday is treated in every setting. The listed date and public classification come from the supplied calendar record.

11. Sat, 22 May 2027Abolition of slavery · MQ

    The calendar lists Abolition de l’esclavage (Abolition of slavery) as a public holiday in region MQ on 22 May 2027. Its attached explanatory excerpt discusses slavery in the United States, not Martinique, and therefore does not substantiate the local history or meaning of this date. The calendar supports the holiday name, date, region, and public classification only. An official Martinique or French government source would be needed to verify the historical context and local scope.

12. Thu, 27 May 2027Abolition of slavery · GP

    The calendar lists Abolition de l’esclavage (Abolition of slavery) as a public holiday in region GP on 27 May 2027. The attached excerpt concerns the end of slavery in the United States and does not verify the history or local significance of the Guadeloupe observance. The date, name, region, and classification are supported by the calendar record. An official Guadeloupe or French government source could confirm the commemorative background and the holiday’s exact local coverage.

13. Thu, 27 May 2027Abolition of slavery · MF

    The calendar lists Abolition de l’esclavage (Abolition of slavery) as a public holiday in region MF on 27 May 2027. The supplied context discusses the United States and does not verify this French regional entry. The calendar supports the listed name, date, region, and classification, but not the local history. Because the precise date and its application in this region remain unconfirmed by the supplied evidence, an official local or government source should be consulted before relying on the listing.

14. Thu, 10 Jun 2027Abolition of slavery · GY

    The calendar lists Abolition de l’esclavage (Abolition of slavery) as a public holiday in region GY on 10 June 2027. The attached excerpt concerns slavery and emancipation in the United States; it cannot establish the history or local significance of the French Guiana observance. The calendar supports the listed date, regional designation, name, and public classification. An official French Guiana or French government source could verify the local commemorative context and precise scope.

15. Wed, 14 Jul 2027National Day

    France’s calendar lists Fête nationale (National Day) as a public holiday on 14 July 2027. The supplied context describes national days broadly as occasions marking a state’s or people’s nationhood, but it does not explain the history or particular significance of France’s 14 July date. The calendar supports the French name, date, and public classification. This entry does not assume specific celebrations or that every person observes the holiday in the same way.

16. Sun, 15 Aug 2027Assumption Day

    France’s calendar lists Assomption (Assumption Day) as a public holiday on 15 August 2027. No explanatory context source was supplied, so the calendar record alone establishes the listed date, name, and public classification. It does not detail the religious meaning of the observance or confirm the scope of coverage beyond what the entry itself states. An authoritative French government or religious source could verify those points and provide reliable context for the holiday.

17. Sat, 09 Oct 2027Abolition of slavery · BL

    The calendar lists Abolition de l’esclavage (Abolition of slavery) as a public holiday in region BL on 9 October 2027. The attached excerpt addresses the end of slavery in the United States, so it cannot verify the history or local meaning of the Saint-Barthélemy listing. The calendar supports the date, regional designation, name, and public classification only. An official local or French government source would be needed to establish the commemoration’s history and precise scope.

18. Mon, 01 Nov 2027All Saints Day

    France’s calendar lists Toussaint (All Saints’ Day) as a public holiday on 1 November 2027. The supplied context describes the day as a Christian holy day honoring the saints and notes its place in Western Christian practice. It also describes grave-related remembrance customs in some places, but does not establish that these customs are uniquely French or universal. The calendar supports the French date and public classification, without specifying individual or local observance.

19. Thu, 11 Nov 2027Armistice Day

    France’s calendar lists Armistice 1918 (Armistice Day) as a public holiday on 11 November 2027. The supplied context connects the date to the 1918 armistice between the Allies and Germany, which brought hostilities on the Western Front to a halt at 11 a.m. It also notes that the date is a national holiday in France. These sources establish the historical reference and listing, but do not detail particular French commemorative events.
