Hello,

I would like to be able to retrieve Spanish holidays.

*I don't know if this is the correct place to post this question (issue).

UK public holidays are available at https://www.gov.uk/bank-holidays.json, it would be really useful to include these in your database.

It does not include school holidays, which are a bit variable in the UK as they are (for state schools) actually set by counties, not country as explained on https://www.gov.uk/school-term-holiday-dates.

Unfortunately, the IT language is not available for Switzerland

In France, we have specific holidays for some regions

Alsace-moselle (FR-57)

• 26 december
• Good Friday is the Friday before Easter Monday

Also, the overseas territories all have a particular public holiday which is the date of abolition of slavery:

• Guadeloupe May 27
• Guyana June 10
• Martinique May 22
• Mayotte April 27
• Reunion December 20
• Saint-Barthélemy October 9
• Saint Martin May 27

I saw in the repo that there were files by region for Spain in particular. Is it enough to use the same model to contribute to the repo dedicated to France?

Thanks :)

Hallo,

der 17. April 2024 war in Kroatien ein zusätzlicher Feiertag, weil an dem Tag Wahlen stattgefunden haben.

https://neradni-dani.com/feiertage-kroatien.php

the data retrieved for portugal for holidays that arent nationwide show two-letter codes for districts but they dont follow any apparent ISO norm i could find. Imo they should follow ISO 3166-2:PT as described on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:PT or I would need a list of the codes used in the API.

thanks for your work on this API :)

The name in English of the French-speaking community is misspelled (missing the "c" in "community":

There is an extra unencoded comma in the Portuguese comments "PT 5.º%2C 6.º%2C, 7.º%2C 8.º e 10.º anos de escolaridade"

Latvia changed 29 May 2023 to a public holiday because their ice hockey team performed unexpectedly well. Although the date is already passed, it should be reflected in the data set.

In order to allow easy validation, it would be nice if the source was specified:

Hello,

The end-of-school dates are published for Italy but are missing from the https://github.com/openpotato/openholidaysapi.data/blob/main/src/it/holidays/holidays.school.csv file.

Would it be possible to add them (like Portugal: EndOfLessons)?

Thanks in advance

I'm looking for holiday data in Denmark. I'm not sure. Is it helpful for you to collect the sources according to the following pattern?

DK-83;Assens Kommune;https://www.assens.dk/borger/boern-og-unge/skole-og-sfo/skole/skolernes-ferieplaner
DK-83;Billund Kommune;https://www.billund.dk/borger/pasning-og-skoler/skole/folkeskolerne/

Best regards

Carsten

It is a problem that the data in this project is not really reliable. There are again several occurences where the holiday end date is before the start date or is over a year later. There are also obvious typos like " D" instead of "DE" as a language code. Most of these Bugs could be automatically detected.

Ideally there would be a GittHub action running for each Commit and Push request that performs some costistency checks.

Regional holiday Mauritius Day is missing but is given in the source on page 21

It would be nice to get the population of each subdivision with an API request.

Hello,
I noticed that the Christmas holidays and other holidays are missing in the federal states of Germany. I tested here, in North Rhine-Westphalia the Christmas holidays from 2024 to 2025 are missing as well as the autumn holidays. I haven't looked any further, but it would be nice if this were updated. Thank you in advance (:

Hello,
in holidays.school.csv for AT there is a missing school holiday for 2024:
DE Herbstferien,EN Autumn Holidays;

Also it is missing here:
https://openholidaysapi.org/SchoolHolidays?countryIsoCode=AT&subdivisionCode=AT-VA&languageIsoCode=DE&validFrom=2024-01-01&validTo=2024-12-31

I might be interested in adding data for more European countries, like Italy which is missing right now. How are the unique ids being generated? Is this done by scripts or should one generate them manually and check that they are unique? That seems a bit like a hassle...

The public holidays data for Netherlands has the wrong date for King’s Day in 2025.

31349587-ddaa-4fd0-9752-7fc786c25208;NL;2025-04-27;;Public;NL Koningsdag,DE Königstag,EN King’s Day

2025-04-27 happens to fall on a Sunday, which means it's celebrated a day earlier.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koningsdag#Changing_of_the_date

if not on a Sunday. If that occurred, which was true for 2014 itself as well, King's Day will again be held on Saturdays preceding the 27th.

On behalf of my country I'm sorry for these exceptions ;)

Hi,

Most of the cantons in Switzerland have school holidays until 2025.
Canton Jura has no more data after August 2023. On the linked page, new data (until 2028) have been uploaded in the meantime.

Hi, don't know if this is the right place to post, but the data for public holidays in Slovakia are not correct.
For example christmas holidays (id: 14886d4b-c0f4-43a7-ade7-da43a2fcf115) are marked as not nationwide although it is.
Basically each school holiday that is in fact nationwide and is marked incorrectly in the API is missing this subdivision: SK-BL (bratislavsky kraj).
How can I help to fix this?
Many thanks:)

Optionally, non-statutory holidays such as christmas and sylvester would be a nice2have

I checked your sources for portugal school holidays and https://github.com/openpotato/openholidaysapi.data/blob/develop/src/pt/holidays/holidays.school.csv
In the source file they mention vacations without weekends, shouldn't they be included?

Initial data provided by @48design:
https://github.com/openpotato/openholidaysapi.data/tree/feature/it/src/it

There are some missing school holidays in Austria that depend on the subdivision:
https://www.bmbwf.gv.at/Themen/schule/schulpraxis/termine/feiertage.html

Would they fit in holidays.school.csv?
