This means that there will be no mail delivery on that day. However, many cities and towns across the country will still hold celebrations such as parades, fireworks, and barbecues to commemorate the holiday.
The Summer Olympics in Paris, France will also overlap with postal holidays. The opening ceremonies will take place on July 26th, which is the same day as the postal holiday for Pioneer Day in Utah, USA. This means that residents of Utah may experience delays in mail delivery due to the holiday and increased traffic from the Olympics.
