The 2026 King's Birthday Long Weekend takes place from Saturday 30th May to Monday 1st June 2026

The 2026 King's birthday public holiday is on Monday 1 June 2026.

The King's Birthday public holiday is celebrated each year in New Zealand on the first Monday in June, even though King Charles III was born on 14 November 1948.

A public holiday on Monday means we have three whole days to play, explore, socialise, relax and generally do whatever we please.

King's Birthday is a public holiday in New Zealand as we are a member of the Commonwealth of Nations with the monarch of the United Kingdom being head of state. King Charles III is the reigning King of the Commonwealth.
