A calendar of the national vacation days when businesses, schools and banks close and people get the day off in Tuscany. With links to holidays in the UK and US.
In Italy, a public holiday is called a giorno festivo, while a national
holiday is a festa nazionale.
Each region celebrates different saints and festivals and although it may not be a general holiday, business may
close to take part in the celebrations
If the holiday falls on a Tuesday or a Thursday it is common for people to take the intervening day to make the
"bridge" for a long weekend: fare il ponte
