Good to know
- Dates worked out from the date-holidays rules, version 3.37.0, and checked against the official list from Lag (1989:253) om allmänna helgdagar.
- Days marked “banks and offices closed” aren’t public holidays, but banks and many offices close.
- A holiday declared at short notice, for an event or an election, may be missing.
