More on 2027 long weekends and bridge days
How the planner counts
- Days off are Saturdays and Sundays (or Sundays only if you work Monday to Saturday), plus public holidays and the Monday in lieu.
- A break is an unbroken run of days off, with a working day on each side.
- Within your leave, it picks the breaks of at least the length you set that give the most days off in total. When two plans tie, it keeps the one that uses less leave.
- A break at the end of December can run into 1 January 2028.
- A Saturday holiday does not move to a weekday. If you get a day off in lieu for it, add that day to your leave.
Frequently asked questions
How many public holidays does Singapore have in 2027?
Eleven gazetted public holidays, the same every year. In 2027, Chinese New Year (day 2) falls on a Sunday, so Mon 8 Feb is also a holiday.
How many long weekends are there in 2027?
5 for a Monday-to-Friday week, with no leave needed: New Year (Fri 1 Jan – Sun 3 Jan), Chinese New Year (Sat 6 Feb – Mon 8 Feb), Good Friday (Fri 26 Mar – Sun 28 Mar), Hari Raya Haji (Sat 15 May – Mon 17 May) and National Day (Sat 7 Aug – Mon 9 Aug).
Which public holidays fall on a Saturday in 2027?
Chinese New Year (Sat 6 Feb), Labour Day (Sat 1 May) and Christmas Day (Sat 25 Dec). There is no weekday holiday in place of a Saturday. If Saturday is not a working day for you and the Employment Act covers you, your employer must give you another day off or an extra day's pay.
What is the best way to use annual leave in 2027?
Hari Raya Haji (Monday 17 May) and Vesak Day (Thursday 20 May) sit three days apart. Take leave on Tue 18 May and Wed 19 May for 6 days off in a row, or add Fri 21 May to stretch it to 9 days (Sat 15 May – Sun 23 May).
What happens when a public holiday falls on a Sunday?
The next day, Monday, becomes a paid public holiday. MOM lists that Monday when it announces the year's holidays.
