2006 Hong Kong Calendar & Holidays
Hong Kong observes 17 public holidays in 2006. These holidays include national celebrations, religious observances, and important commemorative days that are significant to the culture and history of Hong Kong. Public holidays typically mean government offices, banks, and many businesses are closed.
Understanding Hong Kong Holidays
Public Holidays
Public holidays in Hong Kong are days when most workers are entitled to a day off with pay. Government offices, schools, and many businesses close on these days.
Bank Holidays
Bank holidays are days when financial institutions are closed. While similar to public holidays, not all workers may have the day off.
Observances
Observances are notable days that are not official public holidays. Businesses and schools typically remain open on these days.
Regional Holidays
Some holidays may only be observed in certain regions or states within Hong Kong. Check local regulations for specific regional holidays.
Planning Around Hong Kong Holidays in 2006
When planning travel or business activities in Hong Kong, be aware that public holidays may affect availability of services, transportation schedules, and business operations. Consider booking accommodations and transportation in advance around major holidays, as these are popular times for domestic travel and celebrations.
