Flemish Community Day – Belgium

The next Flemish Community Day is on Sunday, July 11, 2027 – in 299 days.

In Belgium 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? Flemish Community Day falls on the same date every year, July 11. 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, July 11, 2027, 299 days from now.

Which weekday does it land on? Across the eleven years in the table, Flemish Community Day lands twice on a Friday, twice on a Wednesday, twice on a Tuesday and twice on a Sunday. 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 Belgium it's a normal working day, which is worth remembering if you're arranging anything across regional lines. In 2027 it falls in July, which also holds National Day on the 21st. 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 Flemish Community 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.
