Maine’s state holidays are listed below for current and future years.
Maine follows all holidays that are recognized by the federal government. Additionally, Maine is one of only two states to observe a Patriot’s Day holiday, along with Massachusetts.
Although the state does not require private employers to offer employees paid holidays, most employers in the state give employees at least seven paid holidays each year. In addition, many employers pay higher salaries on holidays in order to entice employees to work those days.
