Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi Planeteers,

As planners and schedulers, we often need to know the dates of forthcoming public holiday dates in order that these can be allowed for in our schedules.

If you need information about public holiday dates, follow this link to view a spreadsheet containing holiday dates for various countries ...... Public Holiday Dates

If you would like to add public holiday dates for a country not currently on this spreadsheet, or add further public holiday dates not currently shown, or if you are aware of any errors on this spreadsheet, then follow the instructions on the spreadsheet.

Best wishes,


Gary France

Thanks for the spreadsheet, and to Stephen for updating the sheet adding Barbados.  I hope someone can also add for Bahamas, Jamaica, Antigua and St Lucia holidays as we visit often in the islands of Caribbean.

Hi Guys,

I checked the site Marcel mentioned for the dates of Public Holidays for the UK, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Of the thirteen Public Holidays quoted, nine were incorrect, maybe that’s why Gary is preparing his own spreadsheet.

Regards

PPer’s

I need your help.

The PEO collects and collates public holiday dates for various countries in the world. This helps planners and schedulers know in advance what days they need to allow in their programmes / schedules for non-working periods.

Can you click on this link and check the public holiday dates for the country you are in and advise me of any additions or changes needed?

Thanks.

Wow! Just wow!

Thanks, Gary. I’ll make sure that my grad students add Barbados to the spreadsheet within the next three weeks!
