Good to know
Iceland has 16 public holidays, including the First Day of Summer (a Thursday in late April) and Commerce Day on the first Monday of August.
Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve are holidays only from 1 pm, so they are listed but not counted as full days off. Holidays are not moved.
Count the days between two dates, minus these holidays, with the Iceland working days calculator.

Questions
When is the First Day of Summer?
Sumardagurinn fyrsti is the first Thursday after 18 April, between 19 and 25 April — 23 April in 2026, 22 April in 2027.
How far ahead and back does the Iceland calendar go?
Any year from 1990 to 2100, worked out from the holiday rules — fixed dates, Easter, nth weekdays and the substitution rules — with known one-off holidays and start and end years applied. Dates a government proclaims each year can change, so check official sources for future years.
Is anything sent to a server?
No. The holiday rules and every calculation run in your browser, and the PDF, calendar file and CSV are made on your device. Nothing you type — dates, extra days off — leaves it.
