What the numbers say
In 2026, Italy has 13 nationwide public holidays and Slovenia has 15, so Slovenia gets 2 more days off. They line up on 8 dates, including Capodanno, Pasqua, Lunedì dell'Angelo and Festa del Lavoro.
What matters for time off is how many land on weekdays: Italy has 7 on working days (6 fall on a weekend), against 7 for Slovenia (8 on a weekend).
For short breaks, Italy offers 3 long weekends (a Monday or Friday holiday) and 4 possible bridge days (a Tuesday or Thursday holiday); Slovenia offers 5 and 2. Italy has more bridge-day opportunities. The busiest month is April in Italy and April in Slovenia.
