Frequently asked questions
How do the countdowns work?
Each countdown ticks down to midnight of that holiday in your local time zone and updates live while you watch the page.
Which holidays are included?
The official Bulgarian public holidays (New Year, Liberation Day, Labour Day, St. George's Day, Unification, Independence, Christmas and more) plus the Easter cycle (Easter, Good Friday, Palm Sunday). Name days have their own separate pages.
Are the movable-holiday dates accurate?
Yes. Easter and its related dates come from our calendar database, computed with the Orthodox paschal rule for each year.
Can I embed a countdown on my site?
Yes — see the embeds tool, which generates an iframe countdown to a chosen holiday.
