Lithuania public holidays 2027
Public holiday dates for Lithuania in 2027, with calendar and JSON downloads.
- Fri, 01 Jan 2027New Year's Day
Lithuania’s supplied 2027 calendar lists Naujieji metai (New Year’s Day) on 1 January and classifies it as a public holiday. In the Gregorian calendar, the date marks the beginning of the year. The supplied material offers general background on New Year’s Day, but no details about particular Lithuanian customs or how widely people observe it. The calendar listing supports the date and classification; it does not by itself establish the precise legal scope of the holiday.
- Tue, 16 Feb 2027Day of restoration of the Lithuanian state
The supplied 2027 calendar lists 16 February as Lietuvos valstybės atkūrimo diena, translated there as the Day of Restoration of the Lithuanian State, and marks it PUBLIC. No context excerpt was provided for this entry, so its historical background and the legal basis of the observance cannot be verified from the supplied material. The date and name are supported as a calendar listing, but further official information would be needed to explain the anniversary or establish the holiday’s precise nationwide legal status.
- Thu, 11 Mar 2027Day of Restoration of Independence of Lithuania
On 11 March, Lithuania’s calendar marks Lietuvos nepriklausomybės atkūrimo diena, the Day of Restoration of Independence, as a public holiday. The supplied context connects the observance with the 1990 Act of the Re-Establishment of the State of Lithuania. It also identifies this date as one of Lithuania’s three principal national holidays. These details explain the occasion’s national significance without implying that everyone observes it in the same way. The supplied material does not independently establish the full legal scope of the holiday.
- Sun, 28 Mar 2027Easter Sunday
The supplied Lithuania calendar lists Velykos (Easter Sunday) on 28 March 2027 and classifies it as a public holiday. The context excerpt attached to this entry discusses Easter Monday, so it does not provide background for this Sunday observance; its details are not used here. The calendar therefore supports the date, local name and PUBLIC classification, but the supplied evidence does not explain Lithuania-specific Easter customs or independently establish the holiday’s precise statutory scope.
- Mon, 29 Mar 2027Easter Monday
Lithuania’s calendar lists Antroji Velykų diena (Easter Monday) on 29 March 2027 as a public holiday. The supplied context describes Easter Monday as the second day of Eastertide and, in Western Christianity, the second day of the Octave of Easter. These details place the date in the Christian calendar; they do not establish particular Lithuanian customs or imply that everyone observes the day. The calendar listing supports its date and classification, while the supplied material does not independently confirm the legal scope of the holiday.
- Sat, 01 May 2027Labour Day
On 1 May, Lithuania’s calendar lists Tarptautinė darbo diena (Labour Day) as a public holiday. The supplied context notes that Labour Day is linked with International Workers’ Day in many countries and with the labour movement. It also describes the date’s association with the eight-hour-day movement. That general background should not be taken as evidence of particular Lithuanian events or traditions. The calendar supports the date and classification, but the supplied material does not independently verify the holiday’s legal scope in Lithuania.
- Thu, 24 Jun 2027Midsummer Day
Lithuania’s calendar lists Rasos ir Joninių diena (Midsummer Day) on 24 June 2027 as a public holiday. The supplied context explains that European Midsummer observances have traditionally fallen around 23–24 June, close to the Northern Hemisphere’s summer solstice, and identifies the dates with Saint John’s Eve and Saint John’s Day in much of Europe. This is broad regional background, not evidence of specific Lithuanian customs. The calendar supports the listed date and classification but does not independently establish the holiday’s legal scope.
- Tue, 06 Jul 2027National Day
The supplied 2027 calendar lists Valstybės diena (National Day) on 6 July and classifies it as a public holiday in Lithuania. No context excerpt accompanies the entry, so the material does not explain the date’s historical significance or how it is observed. The listing supports the date, name and classification only; further official information is needed to verify the historical account and the holiday’s precise nationwide legal status. No particular ceremonies or customs can be established from the supplied evidence.
- Sun, 15 Aug 2027Assumption Day
On 15 August, Lithuania’s calendar lists Žolinė (Assumption Day) as a public holiday. The supplied context identifies 15 August as the date on which the Assumption of Mary is celebrated in several Christian traditions and describes the Catholic belief associated with the feast. This gives religious context for the English holiday name, but does not establish particular Lithuanian customs or imply that everyone observes the date religiously. The calendar supports the listing and classification, while the supplied evidence does not independently establish the holiday’s precise legal scope.
- Mon, 01 Nov 2027All Saints' Day
Lithuania’s calendar lists Visų šventųjų diena (All Saints’ Day) on 1 November 2027 as a public holiday. The supplied context describes the day as a Christian observance in honour of all the saints of the Church and notes that Western Christian practice places it before All Souls’ Day. This general religious background does not establish particular Lithuanian customs or how widely the day is observed. The calendar supports the date and classification but does not independently confirm the holiday’s precise legal scope.
- Tue, 02 Nov 2027All Souls' Day
On 2 November, Lithuania’s calendar lists Vėlinės (All Souls’ Day) as a public holiday. The supplied context describes All Souls’ Day as a Christian day of prayer and remembrance for the faithful departed, following All Saints’ Day in Western Christian observance. It also notes that some communities visit and tend graves, but does not establish those practices as specifically Lithuanian. The calendar supports the date and classification; the supplied evidence does not independently verify the legal scope of the holiday or how it is observed locally.
- Fri, 24 Dec 2027Christmas Eve
Lithuania’s calendar lists Šv. Kūčios (Christmas Eve) on 24 December 2027 as a public holiday. The supplied context describes Christmas Eve as the day or evening before Christmas, the Christian festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ. It also notes the importance of the date in some Western Christian liturgical traditions. This is general background and does not establish particular Lithuanian family customs or imply that everyone celebrates. The calendar supports the listed date and classification but does not independently confirm the holiday’s precise legal scope.
- Sat, 25 Dec 2027Christmas Day
On 25 December, Lithuania’s calendar lists Šv. Kalėdos (Christmas Day) as a public holiday. The supplied context is titled Christmas Eve, but it also describes Christmas as the Christian festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ and refers to Christmas Day as part of the wider celebration. This provides general religious context, not evidence of particular Lithuanian customs or universal observance. The calendar supports the date and classification; the supplied material does not independently establish the holiday’s precise legal scope.
- Sun, 26 Dec 20272nd Day of Christmas
The supplied 2027 calendar lists 26 December as the 2nd Day of Christmas and classifies it as a public holiday in Lithuania. It gives Šv. Kalėdos as the local name. No context excerpt accompanies this entry, so the supplied evidence does not explain the day’s religious or historical background, distinctiveness from Christmas Day, or local observance. The listing supports the date, name and classification only; official information would be needed to verify its precise nationwide legal status and provide further context.
