NZ annual leave & long weekend planner
Choose a year, anniversary area and leave budget to find longer breaks. You can also count the leave needed for your own dates.
How the planner counts
Each selected working day inside the break counts as annual leave unless it is a listed public holiday or your selected anniversary. Other days count as time off. The planner does not know your leave balance, employer closures, transferred holidays or approval status.
A 2027 example
With Monday–Friday working days, a break from 23–31 October needs four annual leave days: 26, 27, 28 and 29 October. Labour Day on 25 October and the two weekends complete the nine-day break.
Suggestions search up to nine days either side of published holidays and show up to eight of the longest matching breaks. They stay inside the selected year and are ideas, not an exhaustive optimisation of every possible leave pattern.
