Folk holidays in June. Other important holidays

Literally a few days later, 2017 will enter their legitimate rule of the rulers, and therefore it is time to talk about how the period of the board of the fiery rooster will be. It is important that at this time it is planned only 365 days, which means that the year will not be negative from his leapposses. All official public holidays in 2017 have already been made to the production calendar, which means it is possible to talk in more detail about how Russia will be resting from January 1.

Public holidays

Annually, the Government of the Russian Federation creates, and next claims the calendar of the festivities for future 365 days, where the exact temporary framework for recreation workers is indicated in connection with some celebration. It remains only in more detail to consider all the important dates of the militant year of the rooster.

So, the Russian legislation took care that the following days can be called the time of official events:

All of the listed dates have acquired official status, and in honor of their onset, workers' citizens of the country have the right to an additional weekend. At the same time, if the festive time falls on the day off of the week, it means that it automatically moves at the nearest working time. Transferring all the parade dates are set by the Government of the Russian Federation.

Detailed Festive Description 2017

The most prolonged and long-awaited weekends in everything year, the New Year holidays are considered. Their approximate duration does not change - 10-11 days. Previously, a whole set of important and all your favorite holidays was carried out in a crushed mode: first the new year was celebrated, then the workers began to start their official duties for several days, then they were interrupted again on Christmas shints and again recalled professional necessity. It turns out that it is easy to enjoy the output, it was simply impossible. Because of this, now that year in a row, the Russian people meet all winter holidays by long holidays starting at the end of December. Their ending falls from 8 to 10 January.

Next year, the beginning of the specified time comes on a weekend, therefore the long-awaited Christmas shints start for Russia on December 31 on Saturday. A day before that, the 30th day on Friday, the whole country will celebrate the final working day of the outgoing year. The subsequent solemn time will continue until January 8 - Sunday. This means that on Monday, 9 Russians will come back to their immediate professional duties.

Further, according to plan - January 23 or the Day of Defender of the Fatherland. The specified holiday falls on Thursday and it would be just wonderful if the subsequent Friday also turned out to be a day off. But ... This time the Government of the Russian Federation renounced a logical transfer, and therefore the workers get a fractional week: three days of labor, then the whole day for the meeting of the most desirable among the men's half of the holiday population, later 24 hours before the end of the working week and two days of legal weekends.

March 8 will be celebrated in almost a similar scenario - as the International Women's Day falls on Wednesday next year, there can be no speech about any transfer. This says only that the working population of the country will again receive a crushed week at his disposal.


The next holiday is May 1.
In the midst of spring, which means it was time for another celebration - May Day. According to labor legislation and the official government order, the Russians will be able to enjoy the long-awaited holiday from April 29 - Saturday. Completion of events is celebrated on May 1 on Monday. In this case, it turns out a small three-day break in the work, after which the Russians will be able to return to their labor duties again.

One of the most significant days for the Russian people comes on Tuesday. This applies to the Victory Day, official "vacation" in honor of which started on Saturday on May 6. It turns out that the country will celebrate the next anniversary of the victory of 4 days.

Another, no less important holiday of state importance is considered Russia Day. Every year it is celebrated on June 12. Next year in honor of such a celebration, as it comes on Monday, a small vacation is automatically provided for 3 days - a wonderful summer bonus for a vacation or just an extra time to soak up for a still not successful to the sun.

It remains only to recall the last big holiday - day of People's Unity on November 4th.This reason also deserves a 3-day weekend: the celebration itself falls on Saturday, so it is automatically moving on Monday 6.

Weekend transfers

It remains only to show what holidays are dragged on other days for the duration of the weekend. In total, there will be 3 permutations in 2017:

  • January 1, Sunday, on February 24, Friday;
  • January 7, Saturday, on May 8, Monday;
  • November 4, Saturday, on November 6, Monday.

In conclusion, it remains only to add that at least official holidays in the next year so much, this time will be enough to enjoy them and a little rest from the usual working routine.

The coming sooner 2019 is completely given to the omnipotent earthen pig. The specified time is not a negative-leap, so there is exactly 365 days during its duration. Official holidays 2019 in Russia are listed in the calendar. Every year, our Russia meets important holiday events for everyone without exception, in honor of the coming of which the workers are provided with a long or short-lighted additional weekend.

  • November 4 - Day of People's Unity
  • In the event that the public holiday falls on Saturday or Sunday, the day off is transferred to the next working day. In 2017, the Day of People's Unity (November 4) falls on Saturday, so the day off is moving on Monday on November 6.

Therefore, for the 2017 year, such weekend transportation were approved:
