Holidays in Singapore 2027

Last reviewed: October 14, 2026 · Holiday data: October 9, 2026

The 2027 Singapore holiday table below lists 11 dates, each one a day this calculator treats as closed. 8 fall on a weekday and 3 land on a weekend, leaving 253 working days across the year on the national-only count. A date is not always a holiday of its own: 1 is marked observed or additional, the day a holiday was moved to or a further day granted with it.

The 3 weekend dates in 2027 fall on a Saturday or Sunday, days the count already excludes, so the working-day reduction comes only from the 8 weekday dates. Singapore's Holidays Act 1998 declares the days in its Schedule public holidays. When this page was last checked, the Ministry of Manpower's page listed 2025, 2026 and 2027; the data's rows for those years are MOM's dates. The rows for 2024 match MOM's list as the Internet Archive captured it on 15 June 2024. For 2028 and 2029 the dates of Chinese New Year, Hari Raya Puasa, Hari Raya Haji, Vesak Day and Deepavali are calculated and marked (approximate) until MOM publishes them. When one falls on a Sunday, section 4(2) makes the next day that is not itself a public holiday a public holiday. This table lists that day in place of the Sunday. A holiday on a Saturday adds no public holiday under the Act, and the calculator keeps the following Monday as a business day. Section 5 lets the President declare further public holidays by notification in the Gazette, among them an additional day in a year when two holidays fall on the same day; this table carries such a day only once it is gazetted.

Holidays not included

The Holidays Act declares public holidays for the whole of Singapore, so there is no regional layer. Chinese New Year, Good Friday, Hari Raya Puasa, Hari Raya Haji, Vesak Day and Deepavali fall on different dates from year to year in the data. For 2028 and 2029 the dates of Chinese New Year, Hari Raya Puasa, Hari Raya Haji, Vesak Day and Deepavali are calculated and marked (approximate) until MOM publishes them. The data has no Hari Raya Puasa row for 2029: this site has no first-party date for it. That year therefore has 10 rows, and the 2029 count can change when MOM publishes its list.

Singapore Holidays 2027 - FAQ

How many dates are on the 2027 Singapore holiday calendar?
11 dates, each one a day this calculator treats as closed in 2027. Of those, 8 fall on a weekday and 3 land on a weekend. A date is not always a holiday of its own: 1 is marked observed or additional, the day a holiday was moved to or a further day granted with it. The complete list with dates and weekday placements is in the calendar table above.
How many working days does Singapore have in 2027?
Singapore has 253 working days in 2027 on the national-only count, after subtracting 104 weekend days and 8 weekday-falling public holidays. This is the national count: it uses only the dates in the table above, so a holiday kept only in one region or by one sector is not in it.
Which 2027 public holiday dates fall on a weekday?
8 of the 11 dates in the 2027 Singapore holiday table fall on a weekday and reduce the working days count: New Year's Day (Friday, January 1); Chinese New Year Day 2 (observed) (Monday, February 8); Hari Raya Puasa (Wednesday, March 10); Good Friday (Friday, March 26); Hari Raya Haji (Monday, May 17); Vesak Day (Thursday, May 20); National Day (Monday, August 9); Deepavali (Thursday, October 28).
Which 2027 holidays fall on a weekend and how are they handled?
3 of the 2027 dates fall on a weekend: Chinese New Year Day 1 on Saturday, February 6; Labour Day on Saturday, May 1; Christmas Day on Saturday, December 25. Under section 4(2) of the Holidays Act 1998, when a day in the Act's Schedule falls on a Sunday, the next day that is not already a public holiday is a public holiday. Each is listed on its calendar date, and none of those entries takes a working day out of the count.
