Saskatchewan Statutory Holidays 2027
Last reviewed: August 26, 2026 · Holiday data: August 25, 2026
Saskatchewan observes 10 statutory holidays in 2027: 9 fall on a weekday and 1 land on a weekend, leaving 252 working days across the year. The working week is Monday to Friday with a Saturday and Sunday weekend, the same as the rest of Canada; what changes is the statutory holiday set.
How Saskatchewan differs from the federal Canadian holidays
Saskatchewan runs ten public holidays under The Saskatchewan Employment Act. It adds Family Day on the third Monday of February and Saskatchewan Day on the first Monday of August, neither of which is in the federal set. Saskatchewan does not observe the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (30 September) or Boxing Day as public holidays, so a count built on the Saskatchewan calendar drops those two federal days. Victoria Day, Thanksgiving, and Remembrance Day are kept. Saskatchewan grants no substitute weekday when a public holiday falls on a Saturday, and the province says so directly: when a public holiday falls on a Saturday it is not observed on a different day. Christmas Day 2027 and both New Year's Day and Canada Day 2028 therefore stay on their Saturday dates and close no weekday. The working week is Monday to Friday with a Saturday and Sunday weekend.
