An unexpected public holiday has been declared in Argentina for Monday, November 17. This holiday is for state, banking, and education sector employees in the city of Gálvez, Santa Fe, and throughout the province of Jujuy. The holiday is in honor of the city's patron saint and foundation day. For other businesses, it is optional, leaving the decision to employers. This has allowed residents to create a surprise long weekend. The next national long weekend will be for National Sovereignty Day, moved from November 20 to Monday, November 24. Additionally, Friday, November 21, will be a non-working day for tourism purposes.
