About Presidents' Day

Presidents' Day is observed on the third Monday in February. Its official federal name is still Washington's Birthday, a tribute to George Washington, who was born on February 22, 1732. Because the holiday moved to a Monday in 1971, it can fall anywhere from February 15 to February 21 and never lands on his actual birthday.

Many states use the day to honor Abraham Lincoln and other presidents too. Federal offices and banks close, a number of school districts schedule a winter break around it, and retailers often run sales over the long weekend.

How the Date Is Set

Presidents' Day is held on the third Monday in February. Because the rule is based on a weekday, the calendar date changes from year to year.
