Brazil records 15 holidays in 2026. 12 are nationwide public holidays and 1 apply only in certain regions. Domingo de Páscoa (5 Apr 2026) and Proclamação da República (15 Nov 2026) fall on a weekend in 2026, so they hand back no extra day off. Confraternização Universal (1 Jan 2026), Dia de Tiradentes (21 Apr 2026) and Corpus Christi (4 Jun 2026) sit on a Tuesday or Thursday: book the Mondays and Fridays and each becomes a four-day break. The busiest month is Apr, with 3 of them. The longest run without one is 95 days, between 4 Jun 2026 and 7 Sep 2026. The next is Dia de Finados on 2 Nov 2026.
