What is fixed and what may change
All dates follow from the Law on Holidays and Days Off (ZPDPD), articles 1 and 2. Easter follows the Western calendar: 28 March in 2027, and Pentecost Sunday is 16 May.
Slovenia does not move holidays that fall on a weekend. The law says a holiday on a Sunday is not moved to the next working day. In 2027 nine of the days off fall on a Saturday or Sunday, including Easter Sunday and Pentecost Sunday.
Some national holidays are working days and are not listed: 8 June, 7 August, 17 August, 15 September, 23 September, 25 October, 10 November and 23 November. 7 August (Triglav Day) was added in October 2026, also as a working day.
