Click here.Public HolidaysLoire Holidays for 2008 - 2009Holidays in the Pays de la Loire are often widely observed, which means that it may be difficult to find shops open on that day. Plan accordingly and shop the day before.When a holiday falls on a Thursday or Tuesday, many people here also take off the Friday or the Monday to have a long weekend. This is called faire le pont, (literally 'make the bridge' from the week day to the weekend). During the month of August, some places of business close and everyone goes on holiday. In non-touristy towns, you’ll find that some restaurants and shops will be closed for three or four weeks. 2008 1 Jan New Year's Day 24 Mar Easter Monday 1 May Labour Day 1 May Ascension 8 May 1945 Victory Day 12 May Whit Monday 14 Jul Bastille Day 15 Aug Assumption 1 Nov All Saints Day 11 Nov Remembrance Day 25 Dec Christmas Day 2009 1 Jan New Year's Day 13 Apr Easter Monday 1 May Labour Day 8 May 1945 Victory Day 21 May Ascension 1 Jun Whit Monday 14 Jul Bastille Day 15 Aug Assumption 1 Nov All Saints Day 11 Nov Remembrance Day 25 Dec Christmas Day more...
