Bank holidays
He list I provided covers the federal bank holidays in the United States for 2025. However, there are other holidays and observances in the U.S. that are not federal holidays but may still affect businesses and government offices. These include:
Additional Observances (Non-Federal Holidays or State-Specific)
These holidays might be observed in specific states or by particular groups but are not nationwide federal bank holidays:
Inauguration Day – Tuesday, January 20, 2025
(Only observed in Washington D.C. and by federal employees on presidential inauguration years. Since 2025 is an inauguration year, it is recognized in these areas.)Valentine’s Day – Friday, February 14, 2025
(Not a federal holiday, but widely observed as a cultural celebration.)Mother’s Day – Sunday, May 11, 2025
(Not a federal holiday but widely celebrated across the U.S.)Father’s Day – Sunday, June 15, 2025

Regional Holidays (State-Specific)
In addition to federal holidays, many states have their own observances. For instance:
- Cesar Chavez Day (March 31) is observed in California, Colorado, and some other states.
- Patriots' Day (April 21) is observed in Massachusetts and Maine.
- Mardi Gras (February 25, 2025) is observed in Louisiana, especially in New Orleans.
Notes:
- When a holiday like Christmas or New Year’s Day falls on a weekend (as it does in 2025), the federal holiday observance might be moved to the nearest weekday (usually the following Monday).
- Many private-sector businesses or local government agencies may recognize additional holidays or adjust hours based on regional preferences, industry standards, or religious observances.
