When is the next bank holiday and how many more do we have this year?

Both May bank holidays came and went in a blink of an eye and we are going to have to wait nearly three months for the next one to come round.

We may not have had that gorgeous sunshine we were longing for on either Monday, but at least when the next public holiday rolls round in August we can expect some warmer temperatures.

When is the next bank holiday?

The next public holiday in England is Monday August 28, 2017

Looking ahead to that next three-day weekend - and any other time off you've got coming up - why not check out our guides to museums and historical attractions to visit, parks and gardens , pub beer gardens to relax in , plus 16 summery things to do in Surrey when the sun is out.

While there is a long wait until the next bank holiday, you'll have to wait even longer for another day off.

The last two in 2017 do not technically fall until Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
