Madagascar records 10 holidays in 2026. 10 are nationwide public holidays and 0 apply only in certain regions. Martyrs' Day (29 Mar 2026), Assumption Day (15 Aug 2026) and All Saints' Day (1 Nov 2026) fall on a weekend in 2026, so they hand back no extra day off. New Year's Day (1 Jan 2026) and Ascension Day (14 May 2026) sit on a Tuesday or Thursday: book the Fridays and each becomes a four-day break. The busiest month is May, with 3 of them. The longest run without one is 87 days, between 1 Jan 2026 and 29 Mar 2026. The next is All Saints' Day on 1 Nov 2026.
