About
danmarkshelligdage.dk is a modern, fast and clean website about Danish public holidays, school breaks and flag days. Find everything you need in one place β dates, traditions, and vacation planning tools.
Why this site?
Holiday information in Denmark is scattered across dozens of websites. Most were built years ago, with outdated design, awkward on mobile, and overloaded with ads. Many copy data from each other without checking official sources directly. danmarkshelligdage.dk is built differently:
- Fast and mobile-friendly. The page loads in a second even on mobile data. No pop-ups, no video ads, no cookie prompts β just the information you are looking for.
- From official sources. All public holiday dates come from the legislation on retsinformation.dk and the Ministry of Justice flag regulations. School breaks follow the Ministry of Children and Education recommendations and municipal decisions.
- Two languages. Information is available in Danish and English β so every resident of Denmark can find what they need in their own language.
- Does not track you. No Google Analytics, no personal data collection, no sharing with advertising networks. Your privacy stays yours.
What you will find
- Public holidays β all of Denmark's official holidays, dates, traditions and history
- School breaks β official breaks for the current and next academic year
- Flag days β when the Dannebrog is raised and under which rule
- Vacation planner β shows how to get more days off with fewer leave days
