National Holidays Have Been Moved Due to the Olympics

The Olympics, which was scheduled for last year, will start on July 23rd.

There remain various problems, but we hope that the athletes can do their best under these conditions.

 

 

By the way, the actual national holidays in July, August, and October may be different from your 2021 calendars. That’s because many calendars and schedule books were published before anyone had time to take account of the holidays changes due to the one-year postponement of the Olympic Games.

July 19th may be a holiday on your calendar, but this day is not an actual holiday this year. The holidays have been moved as below. Please refer to it and change your calendars accordingly.

 

Public Holidays Original Holidays Holidays in 2021
Marine Day July 19th (Mon) ➡ July 22nd (Thu)
Mountain Day August 11th (Wed) ➡ August 8th (Sun)
➡ August 9th (Mon) is a substitute holiday because the actual holiday falls on a Sunday.
Sports Day October 11th (Mon) ➡ July 23rd (Fri)

 

*These holidays have been changed to the correct dates for Google Calendar and iPhone calendar.
