Slovenia public holidays 2027
Public holiday dates for Slovenia in 2027, with calendar and JSON downloads.
- Fri, 01 Jan 2027New Year Holiday
The supplied Slovenian calendar lists 1 January as New Year Holiday (novo leto) and classifies it as public. That listing is the basis for including the date here; the supplied material does not explain the observance’s origins or how it is marked in Slovenia. This entry therefore avoids assigning it a particular tradition or claiming that all institutions close. Slovenia’s government holiday information would be an appropriate source to check for current legal scope and official background.
- Mon, 08 Feb 2027Prešeren Day
On 8 February, Slovenia’s calendar marks Prešeren Day (Prešernov dan), a cultural holiday associated with France Prešeren, the Slovene national poet. The supplied account identifies the date as the anniversary of his death in 1849 and says the Prešeren and Prešeren Fund awards are presented on the eve. These details place the observance in a literary and cultural frame; they do not imply that everyone marks it in the same way. Official Slovenian material can confirm current legal scope and program details.
- Sun, 28 Mar 2027Easter Sunday
The supplied Slovenian calendar lists 28 March 2027 as Easter Sunday (velikonočna nedelja) and classifies it as public. The material provided for this date confirms the name and listing but does not describe Easter Sunday’s place in Slovenian religious or cultural life. This entry therefore does not infer local customs, attendance, or institutional closures. A current Slovenian government holiday listing would be the appropriate source for checking official status and any country-specific explanation.
- Mon, 29 Mar 2027Easter Monday
Slovenia’s supplied calendar lists Easter Monday (velikonočni ponedeljek) on 29 March 2027 as a public holiday. The accompanying description places Easter Monday as the second day of Eastertide; in Western Christianity, it is part of the Octave of Easter. That general religious context does not, by itself, establish particular Slovenian customs or how widely people observe the date. The calendar supports the holiday listing, while an official Slovenian source would be needed to confirm legal details and local context.
- Tue, 27 Apr 2027Day of Uprising Against the Occupation
The supplied Slovenian calendar lists 27 April as Day of Uprising Against the Occupation (dan upora proti okupatorju) and classifies it as public. No contextual source was supplied to explain the date’s history, meaning, or present-day observance. This entry therefore reports the calendar information without adding an unverified historical account or assuming how individuals and institutions mark the day. Slovenia’s government holiday information would be an appropriate place to check its official explanation and current legal scope.
- Sat, 01 May 2027Labour Day
Slovenia’s calendar lists Labour Day (praznik dela) on 1 May 2027 as a public holiday. The supplied general description notes that Labour Day is linked with International Workers’ Day on 1 May in many countries and is associated with the labour movement. That broad background does not establish which traditions or events are specific to Slovenia. The date and local name here come from the calendar listing; official Slovenian material would be needed to confirm the holiday’s legal details and country-specific context.
- Sun, 02 May 2027Labour Day
The supplied Slovenian calendar also lists 2 May 2027 as Labour Day (praznik dela) and classifies it as public, following its listing of the same holiday on 1 May. The accompanying general description connects Labour Day with International Workers’ Day and the labour movement, but it does not explain why the Slovenian calendar includes both dates or specify local observances. This entry reports the additional listed date without inferring a schedule or customary practice. Government information can confirm the current official arrangement.
- Sun, 16 May 2027Whit Sunday
The supplied Slovenian calendar lists 16 May 2027 as Whit Sunday (binkoštna nedelja) and classifies it as public. No contextual source was provided to explain the observance’s history, religious meaning, or place in Slovenia. This entry therefore stays with the date and name in the calendar and does not assume particular customs or participation. A Slovenian government holiday page would be a suitable authoritative reference for checking the holiday’s official status and any country-specific explanation.
- Fri, 25 Jun 2027Statehood Day
The supplied Slovenian calendar lists Statehood Day (dan državnosti) on 25 June 2027 and classifies it as public. The contextual material provided with this entry is a general list of holidays called Statehood Day in different places, rather than an account of the Slovenian holiday. It therefore does not support a specific explanation of Slovenia’s date or history. This entry reports only the calendar listing; an official Slovenian source is needed to verify its background and current legal scope.
- Sun, 15 Aug 2027Assumption Day
Slovenia’s calendar lists Assumption Day (Marijino vnebovzetje) on 15 August 2027 as a public holiday. The supplied context explains that the Assumption is a Catholic belief that Mary was taken body and soul into heaven and notes that the feast is celebrated on 15 August. This provides religious context for the name, but does not establish how the day is observed by people or institutions in Slovenia. An official Slovenian source would be needed to confirm local context and legal scope.
- Sun, 31 Oct 2027Reformation Day
Reformation Day (dan reformacije) is listed in Slovenia’s calendar on 31 October 2027 as a public holiday. The supplied description identifies it as a Protestant observance commemorating the onset of the Reformation and specifically names Slovenia among countries that officially recognize it. This establishes broad religious and national context, but does not detail how the date is marked locally. An official Slovenian source would be useful for confirming current statutory provisions and any country-specific account of the holiday.
- Mon, 01 Nov 2027Day of Remembrance for the Dead
The supplied Slovenian calendar lists 1 November 2027 as Day of Remembrance for the Dead (dan spomina na mrtve) and classifies it as public. No contextual source was supplied to describe the holiday’s origins, meaning, or observance in Slovenia. This entry therefore gives the calendar’s date and name without adding unverified traditions or assuming how individuals mark the day. Slovenia’s government holiday information would be a suitable authoritative source for checking official background and current legal scope.
- Sat, 25 Dec 2027Christmas Day
Christmas Day (božič) appears in Slovenia’s supplied calendar on 25 December 2027 as a public holiday. The accompanying context notes that Christmas observances vary by country and religion and that many governments recognize the day officially. It does not describe Slovenian customs or establish how widely people observe the date in Slovenia. This entry relies on the calendar for the local name and public-holiday listing, while leaving country-specific traditions and legal details to authoritative Slovenian sources.
- Sun, 26 Dec 2027Independence and Unity Day
Slovenia’s calendar lists Independence and Unity Day (dan samostojnosti in enotnosti) on 26 December 2027 as a public holiday. The supplied account links the date to the official proclamation of the 1990 independence referendum result; the vote itself took place on 23 December. It also says the holiday’s current name was adopted in 2005 to emphasize the consensus behind the referendum. The context distinguishes this date from Statehood Day, which falls on 25 June. Official Slovenian material can confirm current legal details.
