Feiertage Aargau

Feiertage Aargau lists the public and widely observed holidays in the Swiss canton of Aargau, with the annual Bundesfeier on 1 August and the other dates commonly recognised across Switzerland. The holidays calendar is organised around the canton’s civil and religious observances, reflecting the pattern seen in Aargau, in nearby Swiss cantons, and in the broader Swiss federal context. Neujahr and Berchtoldstag open the year, while Easter-related observances, Labour Day, and the August national celebration mark the spring and summer sequence that shapes planning in the canton. Each entry is a single all-day public holiday, set against Swiss local time and arranged according to the civil calendar rather than a fixed weekly pattern. The sample list shows a mix of fixed-date and movable observances: Neujahr and Berchtoldstag in January, Gründonnerstag, Karfreitag, Ostersonntag, and Ostermontag around Easter, followed by Tag der Arbeit and Muttertag in May. In Aargau, as elsewhere in Switzerland, some holidays are anchored in law or long-standing local practice, while others are observed more broadly by schools, offices, banks, and households. The result is a calendar that reflects both official closures and customary rest days across the canton. Residents of Aargau, commuters into Aarau, Baden, and other local centres, and planners coordinating school terms or business openings can use this smart calendar feed, free to subscribe, to keep public holidays visible in Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook. That helps with advance planning around office closures, travel, retail hours, and family events without manual entry. Because holidays in Switzerland can sit at the boundary between cantonal observance and broader national custom, a calendar format gives a clearer view of which days are most likely to affect routines in Aargau and the surrounding region. The calendar updates regularly so changed observance patterns, substitutions, or rescheduled entries appear automatically. That is useful for a canton such as Aargau, where holiday practice can reflect both formal cantonal recognition and widely followed Swiss traditions across the year.
