US markets trade as normal on Dragon Boat Festival. It closes the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Dragon Boat Festival 2026 is observed on Friday, June 19, 2026.
What that day looks like
On Friday, June 19 2026, the Dragon Boat Festival led to a full‑day closure of the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing. The Toronto Stock Exchange, the London Stock Exchange, the Australian Securities Exchange, the Tokyo Stock Exchange, the National Stock Exchange of India and the Bombay Stock Exchange kept trading as usual. The NYSE and Nasdaq were shut as each observed its own Juneteenth holiday, not the Dragon Boat Festival, and the closure applied only on that date.
