About this site

Yes, the domain is spelled with two L's. Hollidays.com has been registered for almost 30 years — long enough that "domain squatting" wasn't a phrase yet when it was first picked up. For most of that time it sat empty.

Now it's something simple: a reference for public holidays around the world. No popups, no newsletter signups, no affiliate links, no chatbot pretending to be a travel concierge.

Why this and not generic travel content?

The travel space online is brutally crowded. Booking.com, TripAdvisor, Lonely Planet, Expedia — these companies spend millions on SEO and have decades of content. A small site has no realistic path to rank for "best beaches in Greece."

But there's a gap they don't fill well: holiday-driven travel planning. When does a Tuesday holiday in Austria line up with a Friday holiday in Germany? When does Slovenia have a 9-day window in late April? Where can a Parisian go for the May bridge that isn't already overrun? These are practical, time-sensitive questions, and the existing answers are scattered across forums, HR sites, and travel blogs.

This site connects two things people already think about together — "when am I off?" and "where should I go?" — and answers them in one place, honestly, without trying to sell you anything.

How the data is maintained

Each country's holidays are reviewed at the start of every year against the official government source (ministry of labour, parliament gazette, central bank calendar — whichever applies). Movable feasts like Easter are recalculated. Where holidays fall on weekends, "observed" dates are noted.

What about the typo traffic?

A meaningful share of visitors to this domain were originally typing holidays.com and missed by one letter. Rather than redirect them away or run ads, the site simply tries to be useful: if you ended up here looking for travel deals, you at least leave knowing whether the bank is open tomorrow.
