Falling on a weekend in 2026: Saint Anthony's Day (Saturday, 13 Jun) and Assumption Day (Saturday, 15 Aug).
Not a public holiday in every autonomous community, but in Ceuta: Maundy Thursday, Eid al-Adha, Saint Anthony's Day, Santa Maria of Africa and Ceuta Day.
For comparison: in 2026 the number of public holidays ranges from 11 (Canarias) to 14 (Melilla). Ceuta lies in between with 13.
Days marked "observed" are substitute days off when a holiday falls on a weekend. Holidays based on a lunar calendar can shift by a day once the official announcement is made.
Dates are generated from the open-source library python-holidays and automatically cross-checked against Nager.Date and the public Google Calendar holiday calendars; every holiday on a working day must be confirmed by a second source. Official announcements take precedence, especially for holidays that depend on the moon or are declared at short notice.
