Frequently asked questions
What is a long weekend in Singapore?
A long weekend in Singapore occurs when a public holiday falls on a Monday or Friday, giving you a 3-day weekend without using any vacation days.

How many long weekend opportunities are there in Singapore in 2026?
In 2026, Singapore has 6 vacation extension opportunities — a combination of natural long weekends and bridge days.
When are the best long weekends to travel in Singapore in 2026?
