About Fastelavn (Denmark)
Fastelavn is an observance (marked, but not a day off) in Denmark.
From Wikipedia: Fastelavn, CC BY-SA 4.0
In 2027 it falls on a Monday; in 2028 it’s on Monday 28 February, and in 2029 on Monday 12 February. Because it’s a Monday this time, wherever it’s a day off it makes a long weekend of at least three days. Also in February 2027: Ramadan (8 Feb), Engineers’ Day (Luxembourg) (8 Feb) and Shrove Tuesday (9 Feb). From this page you can add it to your calendar, get an email before it, share the countdown, or show it full screen.
