Argentina has announced its rest days, which form a long weekend. Saturday, March 21, and Sunday, March 22, are the regular weekend. Monday, March 23, is a non-working day for tourism purposes, and the decision to grant this day off in the private sector is at the discretion of each employer. Tuesday, March 24, is the National Day of Memory for Truth and Justice, a national holiday. By combining these days with the regular weekend, an extended holiday period is created, which many will use for travel, rest, or recreational activities. For those with Monday off, the calendar will allow for a four-day long weekend. This is one of the first extended breaks of the year, which typically boosts tourism and increases traffic on roads and to destinations across the country.
