Murcia observes 13 public holidays in 2026: 11 fall on a weekday and 2 land on a weekend, leaving 250 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 Murcia differs from the national Spanish holidays
The Región de Murcia adds San José on 19 March and the Día de la Región de Murcia on 9 June, and observes Jueves Santo (Maundy Thursday) on 2 April alongside the national Viernes Santo. Because the Día de la Constitución (6 December) falls on a Sunday, Murcia moves the rest day to Monday 7 December; it does not move Todos los Santos (1 November), which stays on its Sunday date. San José, Jueves Santo, the 9 June regional day, and 7 December are the four weekday closures beyond the national set.
