Bridge-day pressure

Story and rule checkpoint
fixed holiday profile: National Day holidays usually distill state identity into one public date, whether the underlying story is revolution, modern state formation, or constitutional continuity.
Local specificity checkpoint
Sweden's National Day points to June 6, which combines the 1523 election of Gustav Vasa with the 1809 Instrument of Government. The modern public-holiday status is recent, which makes its rhythm different from older revolutionary national days. For Sweden, the useful planning question is whether June 6 creates a bridge day with the surrounding workweek, plus local flag ceremonies and municipal events rather than a single capital-centered parade.

| 2030 | June 6, 2030 | Thursday | Projected (fixed rule) |
| 2031 | June 6, 2031 | Friday | Projected (fixed rule) |
