Denmark public holidays 2025

The calendar above is already set to Denmark holidays for 2025, ready to download as a PDF. Below is the full list, the weekday each holiday falls on, and the long weekends they create.
How holidays work in Denmark
- Denmark abolished Great Prayer Day (Store Bededag) from 2024 — older printed calendars still show it on the fourth Friday after Easter, and this data correctly does not.
- The calendar is otherwise strongly tied to the church year: Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, both Easter days, Ascension and Whit Monday are all public holidays.
- Constitution Day on 5 June is not a full statutory holiday — many workplaces close from noon by agreement, but that is custom, not law.
All 14 public holidays
| Date | Day | Holiday |
|---|---|---|
| January 1 | Wednesday | New Year's Day |
| April 17 | Thursday | Maundy Thursday |
| April 18 | Friday | Good Friday |
| April 20 | Sunday | Easter Sunday |
| April 21 | Monday | Easter Monday |
| May 29 | Thursday | Ascension Day |
| May 30 | Friday | Bank closing day |
| June 5 | Thursday | Constitution Day |
| June 8 | Sunday | Pentecost |
| June 9 | Monday | Whit Monday |
| December 24 | Wednesday | Christmas Eve |
| December 25 | Thursday | Christmas Day |
| December 26 | Friday | St. Stephen's Day |
| December 31 | Wednesday | New Year's Eve |
These are the dates as officially observed. Where a country moves a day off because the holiday itself falls at a weekend, the moved date is the one shown, which is why a date here can differ from the traditional one.
Long weekends in 2025
Stretches of three or more days off in a row, counting weekends and nationwide public holidays together. Holidays that apply only to some regions are left out, since they would not give most people the day off.

| April 17 – April 21 | 5 | Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Sunday, Easter Monday |
| May 29 – June 1 | 4 | Ascension Day, Bank closing day |
