Holidays In Denmark




Danish public holidays are by law set to be the same as the holidays defined by the Danish Church. Under normal circumstances, employees have these days off. Employees may negotiate additional holidays as part of their contract, and sometimes have that as part of labor union negotiated contracts.

Rules governing when shops are open, may differ from this list.


PUBLIC HOLIDAYS



OTHER SPECIAL DAYS


Some of these days derive from politics, and some from catholicism traditions that predate the current national church. Some are simply the Scandinavian tradition of starting the celebrations of a special day on the evening before the actual day.
