United States Federal Holidays

United States Federal Holidays lists the official holidays observed across the United States under federal rules, with the Office of Personnel Management setting the schedule for federal employees and much of the public sector. The calendar covers the fixed and floating holidays that shape the federal work year, including New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Washington’s Birthday, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. In the United States, those dates also influence bank closures, school schedules, mail service, and corporate planning, making the holidays calendar a reference point for organisations that work to the federal timetable. Entries in this feed are date-based observances rather than timed appointments, but they still matter for planning around short weeks, payroll, travel, and office closures. Several items follow the familiar U.S. pattern of Monday observance when a holiday falls near a weekend, while others remain fixed to a specific date. The sample sequence also shows adjacent observances that often appear in holiday calendars, such as Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Easter Sunday, Tax Day, and Administrative Professionals Day. For anyone tracking the United States through a business or civic lens, the main value lies in seeing the official federal dates alongside commonly observed cultural and seasonal markers. Government staff, corporate planners, educators, journalists, and anyone coordinating deadlines around the U.S. schedule can use this smart calendar feed, free to subscribe, in Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook. That makes it easier to keep federal closures visible alongside meetings, travel, school terms, and reporting deadlines without manual entry. The calendar is especially useful when comparing federal observances with local office policies, since some institutions follow the federal calendar closely while others keep separate holiday rules. The calendar updates regularly so changes to observance dates, moved bank holidays, or newly declared federal closures appear automatically. That is useful in a country where the holiday schedule is fixed in law but practical planning often depends on how agencies, banks, and employers apply those dates across states and regions.
