Holidays that shift each year
2 of Turkey's public holidays land on a different date each year, following a lunar calendar, a religious calendar or a rule such as “the third Monday in January”. These are the ones to watch when you plan ahead:
- Ramazan Bayramı: 2025-03-30, 2025 · 2026-03-20, 2026 · 2027-03-09, 2027
- Kurban Bayramı: 2025-06-06, 2025 · 2026-05-27, 2026 · 2027-05-16, 2027
A further 7 holidays keep the same date every year and aren't affected by these rules.
