What makes the Italy calendar unique
Every country celebrates some New Year; the Italy signature lives in the other dates: Festa del Lavoro (International Workers Day, 1. Mai), found in no other country in the dataset; San Francesco d'Assisi (St. Francis of Assisi's Day, 4. Oktober), found in no other country in the dataset. The longest dry spell of the year runs from Epifania (6. Januar) to Pasqua (5. April): 89 straight days without a single nationwide holiday. In 2027, there will be 13 nationwide holidays and Festa del Lavoro will fall on a Samstag (1. Mai).
