Victory Day
Tuesday, 23 Jun 2026 · Estonia · 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 22 Jun 2026 for 4 days off.
What the day is for
23 June marks the 1919 Battle of Võnnu against the Baltische Landeswehr. Bonfires lit from the victory flame are carried to every corner of the country, running straight into Midsummer the next day.
Do shops and banks close?
Public holiday; banks and most shops close from midday on the eve.
Getting around
Heavy outbound traffic on the 22nd and 23rd; the cities empty for two days.
When it falls each year
Floating holidays shift; fixed ones move only in which weekday they land on.
