What makes the Denmark calendar unique
Every country celebrates some New Year; the Denmark signature lives in the other dates: Skærtorsdag (Maundy Thursday, 2 Nisan), present in only 17 countries; Pinsedag (Pentecost, 24 Mayıs), present in only 25 countries; Kristi Himmelfartsdag (Ascension Day, 14 Mayıs), present in only 44 countries. The longest dry spell of the year runs from 2. Pinsedag (25 Mayıs) to Juledag / 1. juledag (25 Aralık): 214 straight days without a single nationwide holiday. In 2027, there will be 10 nationwide holidays and Skærtorsdag will fall on a Perşembe (25 Mart).
