Planning Around December 2027
December has 1 federal holiday, so expect banks, schools and government offices to close on Christmas Day (Dec 25). Most private employers observe the biggest ones, but always check your company's list. December 2027 has 22 working days and 8 weekend days across its 31 days.
Tip: mark these dates on a wall calendar so they don't sneak up on you. Add your own events with the calendar maker, or see the whole year on the 2027 holidays page.
Holidays vs. observances in December
Not every date on this page is a day off. Federal holidays are set by law and close government offices and banks. Observances like cultural or seasonal days are widely celebrated but nothing closes for them. Both are worth knowing when you plan the month — and both appear on our December 2027 calendar.
