A fast, efficient Python library for generating country- and subdivision- (e.g. state or province) specific sets of government-designated holidays on the fly. It aims to make determining whether a specific date is a holiday as fast and flexible as possible.

from datetime import date
import holidays
us_holidays = holidays.US() # this is a dict
# the below is the same, but takes a string:
us_holidays = holidays.country_holidays('US') # this is a dict
nyse_holidays = holidays.NYSE() # this is a dict
# the below is the same, but takes a string:
nyse_holidays = holidays.financial_holidays('NYSE') # this is a dict
date(2015, 1, 1) in us_holidays # True
date(2015, 1, 2) in us_holidays # False
us_holidays.get('2014-01-01') # "New Year's Day"The HolidayBase dict-like class will also recognize date strings and Unix timestamps:
'2014-01-01' in us_holidays # True
'1/1/2014' in us_holidays # True
1388597445 in us_holidays # TrueSome holidays may be only present in parts of a country:
us_pr_holidays = holidays.country_holidays('US', subdiv='PR')
'2018-01-06' in us_holidays # False
'2018-01-06' in us_pr_holidays # TruePlease see the python-holidays documentation for additional examples and detailed information.
We currently support 140 country codes. The standard way to refer to a country
is by using its ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code, the same used for domain names, and
for a subdivision its ISO 3166-2 code. Some of the countries support more
than one language for holiday names output.
A default language is defined by default_language (optional) attribute
for each entity and is used as a fallback when neither user specified
language nor user locale language available. The default language code is
a ISO 639-1 code. A list of all languages supported by country is defined by
supported_languages (optional) attribute. If there is no designated
ISO 639-1 code then ISO 639-2 code can be used.
Many countries have other categories of holidays in addition to common (national-wide) holidays:
bank holidays, school holidays, additional (paid or non-paid) holidays, holidays of state or
public employees, religious holidays (valid only for these religions followers). A list of all
categories supported by country is defined by supported_categories (optional) attribute.
The list of supported countries, their subdivisions, supported languages and categories (all default values are hightlighted with bold):
