Polish holidays and customs

Poles are seen as a nation of fun lovers who enjoy festivities, traditions and centuries-old customs. The most ancient rituals, especially those dating back to pagan times, have long lost their magical character, becoming a colourful vestige of the past and a form of amusement ...more

In Poland all weekends and festivals are free of work.

On Sundays and holidays, including those that take place on Sunday, offices do not operate and there is a trade prohibition. Sometimes there is also a possibility of a so-called long weekend when the holidays occur on weekdays in the vicinity of weekends. Polish people take a day or two off and thanks to that they have more days to relax.

In the year 2010:

01 January (Saturday) New Year

04 April (Sunday) Easter

05 April (Monday) Easter Monday

01 May (Saturday) International Workers' Day

03 May (Tuesday) May-3rd-Constitution Day

23 May (Monday) Pentecost

03 June (Thursday) - Corpus Christi

15 August (Sunday) - Assumption of Mary

01 November (Monday) - All Saints

11 November (Thursday) - Polish Independence Day

25 December (Saturday) - Christmas (1st day)

26 December (Sunday) - Christmas (2nd day)
