Bridge day check
Falls on a Thursday. Book the Friday off and you get a four-day weekend — the classic bridge day.
Book off 1 Jan 2027 for 4 days off.
What the day is for
Classified as a bank holiday rather than a general public holiday.
Do shops and banks close?
Banks and financial settlement are closed; many shops and offices trade as normal.
Getting around
Services generally run as on a normal working day.
These notes come from the day's official classification rather than country-specific reporting, so treat them as general guidance for Denmark.
When it falls each year
Floating holidays shift; fixed ones move only in which weekday they land on.
