Every UK bank holiday to add to your calendar in 2026
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it."
The Independent covers a wide range of issues including reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech, and conducts investigations into political financing and documentaries on rights campaigns. The outlet requests donations to fund on-the-ground reporting and to continue sending journalists to present multiple perspectives. The Independent avoids paywalls and positions quality journalism as accessible to all, funded by those who can afford it. As people return to work after the Christmas break in 2026, many are asking about the next bank holiday. Past events included record temperatures during the August bank holiday and a reception for the Lionesses at Downing Street. Upcoming events include the men's World Cup in the United States and the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, making an extra UK bank holiday unlikely after the 2023 coronation day off.
