Public holidays in Italy 2026

About these dates

A public holiday does not always close every business. Essential services, shops and some industries keep working, and pay rules differ by country and contract.

Dates come from the open-source python-holidays project (0.106, MIT licence), which follows each country’s laws and official calendars; NonWorkingDays built these tables from it on 15 October 2026. Names are shown as the source gives them, in the local language and in English, without machine translation.

Dates marked “estimated” follow lunar or religious calendars and can move by a day when they are announced. Days off decreed at short notice, such as bridge days, may be missing. Check with an official source before you book.

Long weekends count the weekend (Saturday and Sunday) and nationwide public holidays only. “When” counts days by the local date in Rome.

! Checked against Normattiva: Legge 260/1949, art. 2 as amended (includes 4 October from 2026) on 15 October 2026, with caveats: The national holidays follow Law 260/1949 art. 2, including the new 4 October holiday from 2026; the 1977 suppression of other feast days and municipal patron-saint days were not checked.
