About Columbus Day
A federal holiday marking Christopher Columbus’s arrival in the Americas in 1492.
Observance varies widely: a number of states and cities recognize the day as Indigenous Peoples’ Day instead, or do not observe it at all. It remains a federal holiday, so federal offices close. It always falls on a Monday, producing a three-day weekend.
Also known as Indigenous Peoples' Day in many states.
How the date is set
The second Monday in October. Because it is pinned to a weekday rather than a calendar date, it never needs shifting — the actual and observed dates are always the same. It is always a Monday, so it always produces a three-day weekend.
