Public Holiday Overlap Finder
Compare two countries' public holiday calendars from a small bundled sample dataset to find dates that are holidays in both, useful for scheduling cross-border meetings.

Uses a small bundled sample dataset of 2026 public holidays for a handful of countries — not a live, complete holiday feed.
Overlapping holidays (same date in both)
How the Public Holiday Overlap Finder works
- Choose two countries from the sample dataset.
- The tool compares each country's holiday list and finds dates that appear in both.
- Matching dates are listed with each country's name for that holiday, so you can quickly see where calendars align.
FAQ
Why is the holiday data limited to a few countries?
This tool ships with a small bundled sample dataset for five countries covering their major national holidays in 2026, rather than a live government holiday feed, so it stays fast and fully offline. It's meant as a quick illustrative comparison, not an authoritative reference.
What counts as an "overlap"?
A date is flagged as overlapping when both selected countries have a public holiday listed on that exact calendar date, even if the holidays have different names or historical origins — like New Year's Day landing on the same date everywhere.
Why does this matter for scheduling?
When planning a cross-border meeting or launch date, avoiding a day that's a public holiday in one country isn't enough — this tool highlights dates that are actually free of holidays in both places at once.
