The Hong Kong government has announced Public holidays in 2027. As the year draws to a close, it's time to make plans for next year's holidays. Kwiksure compiled a 2027 leave-taking guide for working professionals. Whether you want to take 1 day off and have 4 days off for a short trip or take 4 days off and have 11 days off for a long vacation, you can plan ahead.
The most popular long holidays each year are Lunar New Year and Easter, and the Lunar New Year in 2027 offers the perfect opportunity to "take 3 days off and have 9 days off," while Easter offers the perfect opportunity to "take 4 days off and have 11 days off," making it ideal for long-distance travel. New Year's Day allows for a 3-day break without needing to take leave, while Buddha's Birthday, July 1st, and the Mid-Autumn Festival all offer the option to "take 1 day off and have 4 days off," making them great times for quick getaways.
