About public holidays in Argentina
Argentina's national holidays split into fixed dates (always observed on the day, like 25 May or 9 July) and transferable ones, which can shift to the nearest Monday to encourage tourism. The government also tends to add yearly "tourism" holidays (long-weekend bridges) that are not fixed in advance.
Separate from public holidays are "non-working days" (días no laborables), where working is optional depending on the employer. This page lists the official national public holidays.
In 2026, Argentina has 16 official public holidays. The month with the most holidays is February, with 2. 1 month has no public holiday at all.
There are 9 potential long weekends this year, from holidays landing on a Monday or Friday. Meanwhile, 1 holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday.
The longest stretch without a public holiday runs from General José de San Martín Memorial Day (August 17) to Day of Respect for Cultural Diversity (October 12): 56 days.
The first holiday of the year is New Year's Day (January 1) and the last is Christmas Day (December 25).
