Similar to the new Java 8 date-time API, Java 7 also had Calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) method which returned an integer value representing a day in the week.

The integer value ranges from 1 to 7 and the week starts from Sunday (1) and ends on Saturday(7).

import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Date;

public class Main
{
    public static void main(final String[] args)
    {
        Date today = new Date();
        System.out.println("Is weekend : " + isWeekend(today));

        @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
        Date someDate = new Date(2021, 0, 2);
        System.out.println("Is weekend : " + isWeekend(someDate));
    }

    public static boolean isWeekend(final Date d)
    {
        Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
        cal.setTime(d);

        int day = cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
        return day == Calendar.SATURDAY || day == Calendar.SUNDAY;
    }
}
