Castilla–La Mancha, Spain public holidays 2028

2028 at a glance

• New Year's Day falls on Saturday 1 January and no substitute weekday is counted.
• All 2028 dates are provisional – calculated from the rule, because official dates are published only through 2027.
• Spanish law allows a community at most 12 holidays a year, two of them local (Estatuto de los Trabajadores, art. 37.2), and the calculated 2028 list is longer, so Maundy Thursday (Thursday 13 April) is left out until the BOE resolution names the community's days; the choice of the day is the community's.
• In 2028, public holidays fall on 11 weekdays in Castilla–La Mancha, one more than in 2027.

Each Spanish region sets part of its calendar every year, and some regions move a holiday that falls on a Sunday to the Monday; these counts follow the official calendar published in the Boletín Oficial del Estado. Every town also has two local holidays, which these counts do not include: a full year in any town has two working days fewer.

About public holidays in Castilla–La Mancha

Castilla-La Mancha builds its holiday calendar from the days that every Spanish region observes and from a handful of choices made each year by the regional government. The result is then sent to the Ministry of Labour and published in the Boletín Oficial del Estado (BOE), which is the source this page follows. The region has only one holiday that belongs to it alone: Castilla-La Mancha Day on 31 May, which marks the first session of the regional parliament in 1983.

For 2026 the BOE resolution of 17 October 2025 gives the region twelve holidays: 1 January, 6 January, Maundy Thursday (2 April), Good Friday (3 April), Easter Monday (6 April), 1 May, Corpus Christi (4 June), 15 August, 12 October, Monday 2 November, 8 December and 25 December. Two of those are choices rather than national rules. Castilla-La Mancha keeps both Maundy Thursday and Easter Monday, so Easter week gives it a five-day break from Thursday to Monday. Corpus Christi, which falls on a Thursday in late May or June, is the region's other traditional day. Castilla-La Mancha Day falls on a Sunday in 2026 and was not moved, so the region has no extra day for it that year.

The 2027 list, published in the BOE on 13 October 2026, has twelve entries again but a different shape: 1 January, 6 January, Maundy Thursday (25 March), Good Friday (26 March), 1 May, Corpus Christi (27 May), Castilla-La Mancha Day (Monday 31 May), 12 October, 1 November, 6 December, 8 December and 25 December. Easter Monday is no longer on the list. 1 May and 25 December fall on Saturdays, and 15 August is a Sunday that the region did not carry over to the Monday. Ten of the twelve days therefore fall on a weekday.

Neighbouring regions differ in small ways. Madrid does not keep Corpus Christi or Easter Monday, Extremadura and Madrid both move All Saints' Day to Monday 2 November 2026 as Castilla-La Mancha does, and Murcia and Valencia add 19 March where Castilla-La Mancha does not.

Spanish law lets a town add two local holidays a year. They are set by each council, published in the official bulletins, and not included in the counts here, so a worker in Toledo or Albacete may have two fewer working days than the figures shown. Nor are Easter Saturday, Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve counted, because none is a statutory holiday. A holiday that falls on a weekend is counted as a holiday but removes no weekday unless the region has moved it, as the BOE records for 2 November 2026.
