Assumption Day

Saturday, 15 Aug 2026 · Luxembourg · Nationwide · Public holiday

Bridge day check

Falls on the weekend, so it costs most people no leave — and in many countries no day is given back.

What the day is for

15 August is both a Catholic feast and the heart of the Schueberfouer, the three-week funfair on the Glacis in the capital that has run since 1340.

Do shops and banks close?

Public holiday; banks and shops close, though the fair and its restaurants run all day.

Getting around

Sunday services with extra buses to the Glacis and late-night runs during the fair.

When it falls each year

Floating holidays shift; fixed ones move only in which weekday they land on.
