Cataluña Public Holidays 2026
Last reviewed: May 19, 2026 · Holiday data: June 24, 2026
Cataluña observes 14 public holidays in 2026: 10 fall on a weekday and 4 land on a weekend, leaving 251 working days across the year. The working week is Monday to Friday with a Saturday and Sunday weekend, the same as the rest of Spain; what changes is the autonomic holiday calendar.
How Cataluña differs from the national Spanish holidays
Cataluña runs a calendar with four of its own days. It adds Lunes de Pascua (Dilluns de Pasqua, Easter Monday) on 6 April, San Juan (Sant Joan) on 24 June, the Fiesta Nacional de Cataluña (La Diada) on 11 September, and San Esteban (Sant Esteve) on 26 December. It keeps Viernes Santo but does not add Jueves Santo. Todos los Santos (1 November) and the Día de la Constitución (6 December) both fall on a Sunday in 2026, and Cataluña leaves them on that date rather than moving them to a Monday. Sant Esteve falls on a Saturday in 2026, so the working days Cataluña closes beyond the national set are Dilluns de Pasqua, Sant Joan, and La Diada. In the Val d'Aran only, Sant Esteve is replaced by the Fiesta de Arán on 17 June.
