2021年有多少个银行假日?2021年公共假日日历完整指南
Hey there, holiday fans! It’s your go-to public holiday buddy, Holiday Little Assistant, back with another helpful guide. Today we’re tackling a question I get asked a lot: How many bank holidays were there in 2021? Whether you’re planning a retro vacation or just curious, let’s dive into the 2021 holiday breakdown together!
So, How Many Bank Holidays Were There in 2021?
Great question! In the U.S., we typically follow the federal holiday schedule for bank holidays. For 2021, there were 11 个联邦银行法定假日. That’s right—11 perfect opportunities to sleep in, fire up the grill, or hit the mall for those post-holiday sales. Here’s the full list:
1. New Year’s Day (January 1)
2. Martin Luther King Jr. Day (January 18)
3. Presidents’ Day (February 15)
4. Memorial Day (May 31)
5. Juneteenth (June 19)*
6.独立日(7月4日)
7. Labor Day (September 6)
8. Columbus Day (October 11)
9.退伍军人节(11月11日)
10. Thanksgiving Day (November 25)
11.圣诞节(12月25日)
*Fun fact: Juneteenth became a federal holiday in 2021! That’s why this year had one more holiday than usual—a last-minute but very welcome addition.
等一下,为什么有些年份的假期比其他年份多?
Good catch! Normally, the U.S. has 10 federal holidays, but 2021 was special because Juneteenth National Independence Day was signed into law in June. Since the holiday was announced mid-year, banks and federal offices had to scramble a bit to adjust. That’s why 2021 had that extra day off—and honestly, we weren’t complaining!
Did All States Observe the Same Bank Holidays in 2021?
Not exactly! While federal holidays apply to government offices and most banks, states can add their own holidays. For example, some states celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day instead of Columbus Day. Others, like Texas, have additional state-specific holidays (ever heard of Texas Independence Day?). So if you were traveling in 2021, you might’ve caught an extra day off depending on where you were!
What About Weekends? Did Holidays Get “Moved”?
Oh, you know it! If a holiday falls on a weekend, the official observance usually shifts to the nearest weekday. In 2021, both New Year’s Day and Independence Day landed on Sundays, so the observed holidays were Friday, December 31, 2020 (yep, a sneaky early celebration!), and Monday, July 5, 2021. Pro tip: Always double-check the dates—some businesses follow the actual holiday, not the observed one!
To wrap it up, 2021 was a pretty standard year for holidays, with that awesome bonus of Juneteenth making it 11 bank holidays total. Whether you’re reminiscing or planning ahead for future years, knowing these dates helps you maximize your time off (or at least know when the post office will be closed!).
