The holiday calendar in Argentina for the current year includes national festivities representative of the history and cultural diversity of the country. On Wednesday, July 9th, Independence Day is celebrated, followed by Friday, August 15th as a non-working day for tourism purposes. Among other commemorative days are August 17th, in honor of General José de San Martín, and October 12th as the Day of Respect for Cultural Diversity.
In addition to national holidays, there are regional festive days such as Tuesday, January 21st, which is observed as a holiday in Carhué, Buenos Aires province, due to its founding anniversary. This day is considered a holiday for municipal employees, although for other labor sectors it is optional depending on the employers' decision.
For those eager to enjoy a long weekend, the next extended break will have to wait until Carnival, which in 2025 will fall in March to create a four-day weekend, from the 1st to the 4th of that month. This extended period will include Carnival Monday and Tuesday, adding to the usual Saturday and Sunday break.
The 2025 holiday calendar in Argentina includes celebrations of national relevance such as the Day of Remembrance for Truth and Justice, Veterans and Fallen Soldiers Day in the Malvinas War, Holy Week, Labor Day, and May Revolution Day, among other days of historical and cultural importance for the country.
