UK bank holidays 2027

England and Wales (8 days)

Scotland (9 days): 1 January, Monday 4 January, Good Friday, 3 May, 31 May, Monday 2 August, Tuesday 30 November (St Andrew's Day), 27 December and 28 December. Easter Monday is not a bank holiday in Scotland.

Northern Ireland (10 days): the eight England and Wales dates, plus Wednesday 17 March (St Patrick's Day) and Monday 12 July (Battle of the Boyne).

These follow the usual rules. The government can add or move a day for a special event, so check GOV.UK before you book anything that depends on one. If you manage a team, our staff holiday planning guide covers allowances and part-time pro rata.

Best days to book off in 2027

Bank holidays and weekends do a lot of the work if you time your leave around them. This table uses the England and Wales dates and assumes you work Monday to Friday and get bank holidays off.

The Christmas stretch relies on the substitute day for New Year's Day 2028, which falls on a Saturday. Popular weeks go quickly, so ask early.

How to use this calendar

  1. Add the fixed things first. Birthdays, anniversaries, school term dates and renewals go on before anything else.
  2. Book your leave. Pick from the table above and put in your request while the dates are free.
  3. Choose your big three. Write down three things you want to have done by December, and why each one matters.
  4. Give each area of life a line. Try one goal each for health, money, work, home, relationships and fun.
  5. Check it once a month. On the first of each month, pick up to four things to focus on and note what you must not forget.

To print, use your browser's print option and choose A4. The menus are left off, and the calendar prints in three columns.
