Public Holidays on Corfu 2022

According to Greek Law every Sunday is a public holiday. If a Public Holiday falls on a Sunday it is not transfered to the Monday, with the exception of May 1st which is regarded as more of a General Strike than a Public Holiday. During the Summer season tourist services tend to stay open 7 days a week with the exception of Easter Sunday when very few tavernas or bars are open and definitely no shops. Town and village shops are closed by law on Sundays, but tourist shops will be open. Banks also close early on a Friday and do not open on Saturday.
