Each of the sixteen federal states sets its own dates, deliberately staggered so the motorways and the airports do not all fill on the same Friday.

Below are the confirmed 2026 dates, the public holidays and who actually gets them, and the bridge-day arithmetic counted out rather than asserted.</p>
