Sources and limits

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 Valletta.

! Checked against gov.mt: Public Holidays in Malta (page blocked to direct download; list read via search extract), National Holidays and Other Public Holidays Act, Cap. 252 on 16 October 2026, with caveats: All 14 public holidays for 2026 match the official gov.mt list as read through a search extract; the 2027 list is not yet published, so 2027 follows the fixed dates in the National Holidays Act (Cap. 252) and Good Friday.
