Falling on a weekend in 2027: Easter Sunday (Sunday, 28 Mar), Freedom Day (Sunday, 25 Apr), Labor Day (Saturday, 1 May), Assumption Day (Sunday, 15 Aug) and Christmas Day (Saturday, 25 Dec).

Not a public holiday in every region, but in Castelo Branco: Feast of Our Lady of Mércoles.

For comparison: in 2027 the number of public holidays ranges from 14 (19 regions) to 15 (Região Autónoma da Madeira). Castelo Branco is among the regions with the fewest public holidays.

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.
