Presidents Day is on Monday, Feb. 16. The annual commemoration is set aside to mark the birthday of George Washington, the first president of the United States.

Established in 1879, the February holiday pays tribute to Washington, whose birthday falls on Feb. 22. Through the years, the celebration has expanded to include Abraham Lincoln, whose birthday is on Feb. 12.

Now, Presidents Day is generally considered a day to honor all U.S. presidents, despite the fact that, officially, it’s still considered a holiday recognizing only Washington.

For many years, Presidents Day was observed on Feb. 22, regardless of which day of the week it fell on. However, the Uniform Monday Holiday Law, which was enacted in 1971, implemented a new policy in which certain federal holidays were shifted so they’d always land on a Monday, creating more three-day weekends for employees.

If you’re looking at the calendar and hoping for a long weekend, you may be wondering if Presidents Day is a federal holiday.

See below for all the details about Monday, Feb. 16, as well as a full list of federal holidays observed annually, so you can plan ahead.
