Ah, America. You guys don’t do “bank holidays” like the rest of the world. You have federal holidays, which are kind of the same, except not everyone gets them off. On the 25th May 2026, you’re looking at Memorial Day.
Yes! That’s the big one—the unofficial start of summer. Barbecues, road trips, and sales on mattresses you didn’t know you needed. It’s a federal holiday, so banks, post offices, and most government offices shut down. Your local taco joint? Probably open, but with a surcharge. Because capitalism.
So if you’re in the US, yes, the 25th is a day off—but only if your boss is nice, or if you work for the government. Otherwise, you might be grilling burgers at 7 PM after a full day of spreadsheets. Balance.
