Working days in Ireland, 2027
Ireland has 252 working days in 2027: the year's 261 weekdays, minus the 9 nationwide public holidays that land on one. The month-by-month table below is computed from the same holiday data the calendar maker prints.

- The fullest month is December with 23 working days; the lightest is February with 19.
- Counts use nationwide holidays only — regional ones (a state day in the US, a cantonal day in Switzerland) reduce the total further where they apply.
- Weekends are Saturday and Sunday. Half-day customs — a Christmas Eve afternoon, a Bayram eve — are not subtracted.
Which holidays are subtracted
The 9 nationwide holidays falling on weekdays come from the same dataset as the Ireland public holidays 2027 page, which lists each one with the weekday it lands on — and how Ireland's holiday system works:
- Ireland has ten public holidays, the newest being St Brigid's Day — the first Monday of February, or 1 February itself when that falls on a Friday. It was added in 2023, so older printed calendars miss it.
- Good Friday is not a public holiday, despite being widely treated as one; banks close, but there is no statutory entitlement. Easter Monday is the actual holiday.
- When a public holiday falls at a weekend, employees are entitled to a paid alternative — commonly the following Monday, which is the observed date shown here.
