Panama records 14 holidays in 2027. 13 are nationwide public holidays and 0 apply only in certain regions. Día de los Mártires (9 Jan 2027), Día del Trabajo (1 May 2027) and Navidad (25 Dec 2027) fall on a weekend in 2027, so they hand back no extra day off. Martes de Carnaval (9 Feb 2027) sits on a Tuesday or Thursday, so booking the Monday turns it into a four-day break. The busiest month is Nov, with 4 of them. The longest run without one is 186 days, between 1 May 2027 and 3 Nov 2027. The year opens with Año Nuevo on 1 Jan 2027 and closes with Navidad on 25 Dec 2027.
