Tuesday, 6 Jan 2026 · Armenia · Nationwide · Public holiday
Bridge day check
Falls on a Tuesday. Book the Monday off and you get a four-day weekend — expect a lot of colleagues to do exactly that.
Book off 5 Jan 2026 for 4 days off.
What the day is for
The central Christian winter feast; in most countries the household gathering matters more than the church service.
Do shops and banks close?
Near-total closure of retail, offices and banks. Expect the preceding afternoon to shut early too.
Getting around
Skeleton or suspended services in many countries. Book intercity travel well ahead.
When it falls each year
Floating holidays shift; fixed ones move only in which weekday they land on.
