Ascension Bridge, long weekends ... Le Figaro tells you the dates to use to maximize your travel time in 2022 thanks to the set of public holidays.


Under scrutiny by most of the employees who are already preparing for Christmas and ski holidays, the public holiday calendar will prove to be quite interesting next year.

In 2022, four of them fall during the weekend, four on a Friday or Monday and three in the middle of the week.

Taking 17 days off on specific dates (see infographic below) will give you 40 days of vacation.

So much time saved to allow yourself a stay in town, in the mountains or on the coast, or even a more rare and distant trip.

What are the dates of public holidays in 2021, 2022 and 2023?

What days of leave to take in 2022?

The first possibility is offered in

April

on Easter Monday (April 18).

By posing on Friday the 15th, you get four days of rest;

an opportunity to take advantage of the arrival of fine weather.

Note that this day is a public holiday in Alsace-Moselle (departments of Moselle, Bas-Rhin and Haut-Rhin) where it corresponds to Good Friday.

In

May

, thanks to Ascension Thursday (May 26), requesting leave on Friday 27 gives you a four-day bridge.

At the beginning of

June

, without sacrificing any time off, you enjoy a three-day weekend thanks to Whit Monday (June 6).

Here, the trick is to ask every working day between these two holidays (from Thursday May 26 to Monday June 6 inclusive): placing six holidays will result in 12 days of rest.

What to afford a small vacation before the big ones!

In November 2022, 8 days of leave frees up 16 days of vacation

In

July

, we will celebrate National Day (July 14) on a Thursday.

Take time out of the office on Friday the 15th to enjoy a four-day weekend.

In

August

, the Assumption (August 15) is celebrated on a Monday, which automatically extends your weekend by one day.

To have four days, also ask on Friday August 12th.



Like the month of May,

November

is particularly advantageous.

Since the celebration of All Saints' Day (November 1) takes place on a Tuesday, posing on Monday October 31 frees you up for a four-day weekend.

The weeks of October 31 and November 7 each contain two public holidays.

By being away for these two weeks (i.e. 8 days off), you get 16 days off (i.e. from Saturday 29 October to Sunday 13 November inclusive).

In

December

, the calendar does not offer a gift: Christmas (December 25) will be celebrated on a Sunday, just like the New Year 2023.
