About Public Holidays in 日本
Japan's holidays reflect a unique system of public law and deep-rooted tradition. The country observes sixteen national holidays, from the New Year's celebrations and Coming of Age Day in January to the emperor-related dates and Culture Day in November. Golden Week in late April and early May — Shōwa Day, Constitution Day, Greenery Day and Children's Day — creates the year's biggest travel season, while the Obon festival in August, though not an official holiday, sends millions back to their hometowns. The Emperor's Birthday on February 23 has been observed since 2020 as a public holiday.
In April 2027 there is 1 public holiday: Showa Day. In 2027, Japan observes 17 public holidays including 17 national, of which 1 falls on a weekend.
