Columbus Day is a federal holiday in the United States observed on the second Monday of October. It commemorates the arrival of Christopher Columbus in the Americas in 1492, a voyage that significantly shaped world history.
The holiday was first recognized in 1937 and became a federal holiday in 1971, following the Uniform Holiday Act, which moved it to a Monday to create a long weekend for workers.
Today, Columbus Day is marked in different ways across the country. Some communities celebrate Italian-American heritage with parades and cultural events, while others observe it as Indigenous Peoples’ Day to honor the history and contributions of Native American communities.
As with many federal holidays, government offices, banks, and some businesses close, giving people the opportunity to reflect, celebrate heritage, or enjoy a day of rest.
Because holidays often bring crowds and higher travel costs, planning ahead can make your trip smoother and less expensive.
