Official holidays in May in Russia

The calendar

Official holidays in May 2020:

  • World Labor Day - May 1;
  • Victory Day - May 9th.
Weekends: April 30 - a short day, May 1-5, inclusive, and May 9-12

Let's take a closer look at the weekend calendar:

  • May 1 is World Labor Day. In 2020, falls on Friday, is considered officially a holiday. Next comes May 2 and 3 - also a weekend - due to the transfer of the New Year holidays (postponed on January 5 and 6). And that's not all! Two more days were added to them - on May 4 and 5.
  • May 9 on the calendar falls on Saturday, so the weekend will be on the 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th. May 8 will be a shortened day, and 13 - the beginning of the work week.
  • In May 2020, workers will rest for 9 days.

It can be concluded that people will rest in the following days:

  • May 1-5 inclusive.
  • May 9-12 inclusive.

The advantage of such a calendar is that the working rhythm is not lost, because the total number of working days in May is 18, and not working days - 13. This includes 2 holidays.

Usually people go to the country house or to a country house on May 1. There they prepare plots for planting vegetables, repair summer houses, decorate the territory, so it is important to know what the weekend will be in May 2020.

In 2020, a calendar works in which all the days off that were officially rescheduled in connection with the holidays are marked. It was based on a decision of the Government of the Russian Federation, which adopted a resolution on the transfer of holidays.

Often this calendar notes:

  • Red - where there is a transfer and / or connection of weekends, as well as holidays, which will help the residents of Russia to have a good rest.
  • In any other color or using the mark "asterisk", short working days that precede the holidays are marked.
