Republic Day (Festa della Repubblica) – Italy

The next Republic Day (Festa della Repubblica) is on Wednesday, June 2, 2027 – in 260 days.

In Italy it's a public holiday, so schools, government offices and most businesses close.

When is it? Republic Day (Festa della Repubblica) falls on the same date every year, June 2. 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 Wednesday, June 2, 2027, 260 days from now.

Which weekday does it land on? Across the eleven years in the table, Republic Day (Festa della Repubblica) lands twice on a Monday, twice on a Saturday, twice on a Friday and twice on a Wednesday. In four 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. Banks, government offices and schools close. Supermarkets and larger shops usually open on reduced hours, smaller independents often don't bother, and public transport tends to run a Sunday timetable. Post isn't collected or delivered. If you need something from a council, a bank or a doctor's surgery, the working day before it is the one to aim for, and it will be busier than usual for exactly that reason. In 2027 it falls in June, and nothing else of note shares the month with it.
