In 2026, Sweden has 13 public holidays (These are the thirteen general public holidays (allmänna helgdagar), uniform nationwide. Christmas Eve, Midsummer Eve and New Year’s Eve are absent: all three are de facto days off and Midsummer Eve is the bigger celebration of the two Midsummer days, but none is an allmän helgdag. Whit Monday is also absent — it was abolished in 2005 and replaced by the 6 June national day, which is listed here).
