Note: Holidays in Jordan are often flexible. It is common for the government to change the day which a holiday is supposed to be celebrated on to another day — usually to prolong weekend.
Jordanian Christians also have December 26th, Palm Sunday, Easter Sunday, and Easter Monday as public holidays, with Easter being celebrated by all denominations according to the Orthodox date.
