Each and every year the Bulgarian Council of Ministers posts the official public holidays schedule for the respective year, considering that as per the Bulgarian legislation, when a National or Public Holiday is dated on Saturday or Sunday, we celebrate with a non-working day the Monday afterwards.

And here are the holidays of non-working days in 2018:

- The first holiday after the winter holidays is on 3^rd March. This year's official holiday falls on Saturday, which, according to the new rule, means that we will be compensated for another day of rest – 5^th March.

- In 2018, Easter falls early on 8^th April. We will rest as usual from Good Friday until Easter Day 2 – 6^th – 9^th April.

- May, which is traditionally filled with many holidays. 1^st May (Labor Day) falls on Tuesday. With one day off – 30^thApril, you can arrange a 4-day break from 28^th April to 1^st May.

- The next big holiday, St. George, is Sunday. Thus, on 6^th May, three days off are again - from 5^th to 7^th May.

- The Day of Bulgarian Education and Slavonic Writing, 24 May is on Thursday. If you take a Friday off, you can enjoy another long weekend.

- After a three-month summer break, the holiday season is coming. The first day off is 6^th September - the unification of Bulgaria, which falls again on Thursday and can easily be combined with one day off. 22^nd September, when we celebrate Bulgaria's independence, is Saturday. That is why we are set on Monday – 24^th September, to rest.

- And in 2018 the Christmas and New Year holidays are long, with only two working days between them. Christmas celebrations begin on 22^nd December and continue for five days - until Christmas Day 2, 26^th December. Business days are only 27^th and 28^th December. New Year's Holidays will last for 4 days - from 29^th  December to 1^st January.
