About public holidays in Community of Madrid

The Community of Madrid is the region where the question "how many days off do I get?" most often has a different answer from the one in the news, because the regional government decides each autumn whether to keep Madrid Day, to move a Sunday holiday to the Monday, and whether to keep Saint Joseph's Day. This page follows the lists published in the Boletín Oficial del Estado (BOE) on 28 October 2025 for 2026 and on 13 October 2026 for 2027.

Madrid Day, on 2 May, commemorates the 1808 uprising against French troops. The region keeps Maundy Thursday and Good Friday but not Easter Monday. In 2026 the twelve holidays are 1 January, 6 January, Maundy Thursday (2 April), Good Friday (3 April), 1 May, 2 May, 15 August, 12 October, Monday 2 November, Monday 7 December, 8 December and 25 December. Madrid is one of the regions that moves All Saints' Day and Constitution Day to the Monday when they fall on a Sunday, and that is what produced the two Mondays in autumn 2026. Madrid Day and the Assumption both fall on a Saturday that year, so only ten of the twelve cost a working day, and Madrid did not add a Monday for either.

The 2027 resolution is quite different. It lists 1 January, 6 January, Saint Joseph's Day (Friday 19 March), Maundy Thursday (25 March), Good Friday (26 March), 1 May, Monday 16 August, 12 October, 1 November, 6 December, 8 December and 25 December. Madrid Day does not appear because 2 May is a Sunday and the region did not move it to Monday 3 May. Instead the Assumption, on Sunday 15 August, is moved to Monday 16 August, which gives the city a summer long weekend. Saint Joseph's Day returns after being absent in 2026. 1 May and 25 December are Saturdays, so ten holidays are on weekdays.

Compared with its neighbours, Castilla-La Mancha keeps Easter Monday in 2026 but not 2027 and has no Madrid Day, and Castilla y León has its own holiday on 23 April. The community borders only those two.

What is not counted: two local holidays per municipality, chosen by the town council and published in the regional bulletin. The city of Madrid has traditionally used San Isidro on 15 May and La Almudena on 9 November. They are not in the counts, so a worker in the capital will have two fewer working days than the totals. Easter Saturday, Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve are not holidays by law and count as working days.
