Public Holidays in United States — 2025
There are 15 public holidays in United States in 2025 — a middle-of-the-road calendar by international standards.

The dates are spread fairly evenly — 8 before July and 7 after it — with January the busiest month.
The longest dry spell runs 60 days, from Monday, February 17, 2025 to Friday, April 18, 2025; that is the stretch worth spending annual leave on.
8 holiday(s) sit next to the weekend, and 5 single bridge day(s) could turn into a four-day break.
United States sits in Northern America, is run from Washington, D.C., pays in Us Dollar, and has about 331M people planning around these same dates.
