Greece records 15 holidays in 2026. 15 are nationwide public holidays and 0 apply only in certain regions. Κυριακή του Πάσχα (12 Apr 2026), Πεντηκοστή (31 May 2026), Κοίμηση της Θεοτόκου (15 Aug 2026) and 1 other fall on a weekend in 2026, so they hand back no extra day off. Πρωτοχρονιά (1 Jan 2026) and Θεοφάνεια (6 Jan 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 75 days, between 1 Jun 2026 and 15 Aug 2026. The next is Χριστούγεννα on 25 Dec 2026.
