What are bank and public holidays?
Bank holidays are holidays when banks and many other businesses are closed for the day. Public holidays are holidays that have been observed through custom and practice, such as Christmas Day.

There are laws that allow the dates of bank holidays to be changed, or other holidays to be declared, for example, to celebrate special occasions.
