About this file
This file is a reference document listing Hawaii State Holidays for 2026 and 2027, created by the Department of Human Resources Development for use by state government agencies. The document outlines 13 official state holidays observed during each year, including New Year's Day, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, King Kamehameha I Day, Independence Day, Statehood Day, Labor Day, General Election Day (2026 only), Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Each holiday is identified with its specific date of observation and the statutory or constitutional designation that defines when it occurs. The document notes that the actual calendar dates shift between the two years, with some holidays moving to different days of the week accordingly.
The document includes footnotes indicating that the holiday schedule is for state government agencies exclusively and that federal and local banking holidays may differ. It acknowledges that state agencies operating on schedules other than Monday through Friday, 7:45 AM to 4:30 PM, should reference applicable collective bargaining agreements for holiday observance guidance. The document is subject to change and was created on January 12, 2026. This reference material would be essential for contract execution planning, staffing, and timeline development for the related Monday.com consulting and implementation project with the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, as it establishes when state personnel would not be available for work.
