Public holidays in Luxembourg
Luxembourg has 11 legal public holidays, defined by the law of 25 April 2019. These days are non-working days for all employees.
If a public holiday falls on a Sunday or a usual rest day, the employer must grant a compensatory day off within three months.
Luxembourg is the only EU member state to recognise Europe Day (9 May) as a legal public holiday.
