Uri Public Holidays 2026
Last reviewed: May 19, 2026 · Holiday data: June 24, 2026
Uri observes 14 public holidays in 2026: 10 fall on a weekday and 4 land on a weekend, leaving 251 working days across the year. The working week is Monday to Friday with a Saturday and Sunday weekend, the same as the rest of Switzerland; what changes is the cantonal holiday calendar.
How Uri differs from the national Swiss holidays
Uri is a fully Catholic canton and observes six days beyond the national Swiss set across the whole canton: Heilige Drei Könige (Epiphany) on 6 January, Josefstag (St Joseph's Day) on 19 March, Fronleichnam (Corpus Christi) on the Thursday 60 days after Easter, Mariä Himmelfahrt (Assumption) on 15 August, Allerheiligen (All Saints' Day) on 1 November and Mariä Empfängnis (Immaculate Conception) on 8 December. All eight national days, including Karfreitag, the Easter and Whit Mondays and Stephanstag, are kept. The working week is Monday to Friday with a Saturday and Sunday weekend, so a Uri due date can land several days later than the national one in a year where these feasts fall on weekdays.
