UK Public Holidays 2025

A new year brings new opportunities! Whether you live in the United Kingdom or are visiting as a tourist, knowing the UK’s official public holidays in advance will make it much easier to plan your work and social life. By planning your holidays early, you can spend more time with loved ones or enjoy new experiences.

If you’re dealing with time-sensitive matters such as visa applications, residency permits, government services, or banking, it’s especially important to keep track of holiday dates. Many public offices, consulates, schools, and even private sector businesses may be closed during these times. For those who are new to the UK or staying for study or work, paying attention to official holiday dates can help avoid disruptions in your plans.

Keep in mind that public holidays vary across regions—the calendars for England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland are not exactly the same. For last-minute applications or processes, it’s always best to complete them before the holiday closures.

Here is the list of official UK-wide public holidays in 2025:

**Depending on where you live, additional regional holidays may apply. Always check your local calendar before making final plans.

The UK government’s official website provides up-to-date information on public holiday dates and updates them regularly. If you’re planning to travel during these periods, it’s a good idea to book your transport and accommodation early.
