Yeah, use it for that too.
We were given a holiday (day off work) for the Royal Wedding.
The holiday period (Christmas/New Year) is always very busy.
My parents are going on holiday to Italy for a week.
It's kind of a flexible word! Saying 'holiday' instead of 'vacation' sounds weird to Americans though, so be careful. :)

A holiday would be a day like Easter, Christmas, or Valentine's day. It's a celebratory time.
A vacation would be packing up and driving down to Florida in the summer and spending a week on the beaches. A holiday is celebratory time, while a vacation is leisure time. Does that make sense?

I see you have both US and UK English marked on your profile. These words are dealt with differently in the UK - our 'holiday' is the same as the American 'vacation'. Just to be aware. :)

Aeth, thank you!
As I understood,
1)In US 'holiday' - means celebration;
'Vacation' - leisure.
2)In UK 'holiday'='vacation' - in the meaning of leisure time.
And what word is used for celebratory time? Holidays?

I have UK English marked on my profile? I didn't mean to do that. I'll fix it. I knew of the differences, but since it was posted on English (US) I figured I'd give US usage.

I am interested in both UK and USA English variants of these words and their proper usage, so I consider your answers very useful! Thanks, again!
