Long weekends and bridge days in Slovakia

A long weekend is three or more days off in a row made by a nationwide holiday and the weekend. A bridge day is a working day with a day off on both sides: one leave day there joins a holiday to the weekend, or two holidays to each other.

Long weekends (5)

  • Friday 1 January to Sunday 3 January 2027: 3 days off, with Day of the Establishment of the Slovak Republic.
  • Friday 26 March to Monday 29 March 2027: 4 days off, with Good Friday, Easter Monday.
  • Saturday 3 July to Monday 5 July 2027: 3 days off, with St. Cyril and Methodius Day.
  • Saturday 30 October to Monday 1 November 2027: 3 days off, with All Saints’ Day.
  • Friday 24 December to Sunday 26 December 2027: 3 days off, with Christmas Eve.

Bridge days (0)

No working day in 2027 sits between two days off, so there is no bridge day by this rule.

Regional holidays are left out of both lists: they depend on where the employee works.

Regional holidays

Every public holiday in Slovakia applies nationwide, so one list covers all employees there.
