Stay Ahead of the Crowd
Whether you’re a busy professional juggling work commitments or a parent navigating school timetables, knowing Singapore’s public holidays for 2026 can make a huge difference.

- Snag better airfares and hotel deals before peak travel sets in
- Submit your leave early and avoid clashes with coworkers
- Maximise your downtime and spend more quality moments with loved ones
Public holidays often align with school vacations and local festivities, so getting ahead of the calendar means less stress and more memorable getaways. Don’t wait—start mapping out your long weekends today!
