Holiday dates are shown for planning. Employers, banks and courts can close on other days as well; add those as your own days off in the calculator.
Dates up to the end of 2028 come straight from GOV.UK. Later years are marked as expected, worked out from the usual rules, until the government publishes them. One off holidays are only included once they are announced.
