St Leopold's Day – Austria

The next St Leopold's Day is on Sunday, November 15, 2026 – in 61 days.

In Austria it's a regional holiday. Some states, provinces or regions take the day off and others don't, so check what applies where you live.

When is it? St Leopold's Day falls on the same date every year, November 15. The date itself never changes, but the day of the week does, and that decides whether you get a long weekend out of it. Next time round is Sunday, November 15, 2026, 61 days from now.

Which weekday does it land on? Across the eleven years in the table, St Leopold's Day lands twice on a Saturday, twice on a Thursday, twice on a Wednesday and twice on a Monday. In three of those it sits next to a weekend, turning it into a three-day break. Those are the years to book early. You can open the printable calendar for any year in the table and see the date in context.

What to expect on the day. It depends entirely on where you are. In the states or regions that observe it, expect the usual public holiday pattern of closures. Everywhere else in Austria it's a normal working day, which is worth remembering if you're arranging anything across regional lines. In 2026 it falls in November, which also holds All Saints' Day (Allerheiligen) on the 1st. Worth seeing them together before you commit to dates.

Putting it in your own calendar. You don't need to. Every calendar on this site already shows St Leopold's Day for whichever country you've selected. What's worth adding is everything around it: the travel, the cover arrangements, who's visiting when. Open the month, click the days and type. Keep a free account and the notes stay with you between devices, and you can send someone a read-only link so you're both working from the same dates.

Every date here is worked out from the official rule rather than copied off a list, so the later years are as reliable as this one. If a date looks wrong for your region, please say so. Regional holiday rules do change, and we'd rather fix the rule than leave it.
