2027 Holiday Schedule Released: Fewest Make-up Workdays in Recent Years
The 2027 holiday schedule was announced on November 5: the Spring Festival holiday, from February 5 (Chinese New Year's Eve) to February 13 (the eighth day of the first lunar month), will last for a total of 9 days with make-up workdays, tying with 2026 for the longest Spring Festival holiday on record. To avoid a 7-day work stretch after the holiday, one day will be moved from each of the two weekends surrounding the Spring Festival.
New Year's Day and Qingming Festival will naturally fall on weekends and require no make-up workdays. Both the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival will fall on a Wednesday and will not require any make-up workdays. Throughout the year, there will be 9 days for Spring Festival, 7 days for National Day, 5 days for Labor Day, and 3 days each for New Year's Day and Qingming Festival. The longest continuous work period after any holiday will be 6 days, marking the fewest make-up workdays in recent years.
