What the numbers say
In 2026, Australia has 6 nationwide public holidays and Singapore has 11, so Singapore gets 5 more days off. They line up on 3 dates, including New Year's Day, Good Friday and Christmas Day.
What matters for time off is how many land on weekdays: Australia has 6 on working days (0 fall on a weekend), against 10 for Singapore (1 on a weekend).
For short breaks, Australia offers 5 long weekends (a Monday or Friday holiday) and 1 possible bridge day (a Tuesday or Thursday holiday); Singapore offers 6 and 2. Singapore has more bridge-day opportunities. The busiest month is January in Australia and February in Singapore.
