Some people would say yes, because they can experience weekends, therefore weekends exist.
Others would say no, a weekend is just a societally defined convenience.
What is your opinion?

A week is an excepted measurement of time. So yes that block comes to an end. Just as a particular hour comes to an end, a month comes to an end, a year comes to an end and your mom sucking my cock comes to an end with my splattering the back of her eager throat.

Yes they do, even objectively.
Things don't need a label from us in order to exist.
Labeling something doesn't imbue that something with magical properties.
Its an interesting thought though.

They exist objectively once a week for an infinitely small amount of time so technically they actually don't exist objectively because you can't ever define the amount of time a week ends and the next begins since whatever amount of time that would be can always be smaller.

After further thought i changed my mind.
As a concept weekends exist on a subjective level, but the weekend itself is actually imaginary. Its not some object that we can point at and say that's a banana.
We measured time.
Our understanding of time appears to be somewhat accurate.
We decided that a certain amount days off was a good idea.
We named these days weekend.
We used something that exist here(time) and created something abstract with it(weekends)
A weekend is a concept, and as all other concepts, it will cease to exist if we stop using/teaching it.
Therefore, the conclusion must be:
No, weekends doesn't exist objectively.
Unless of course concepts and thoughts are stored somewhere else.
But then we must delve deeper into the meaning of the word existence.

Nothing exists except God. There seem to be things other than God, but only because he is dreaming them up and making them his disguises to play hide-and-seek with himself. The universe of seemingly separate things is real only for awhile as it comes and goes as the the self hides and seeks itself.

Yes, because God exists objectively and God deemed there be a day of rest upon which the week "ends". Weekends are, therefore, objective reality. Even in places where the day of rest is not held, where the day is different, or where God is entirely unknown: the weekend exists, because God decreed it so.

Depends on whether you're dead or alive.
