São Tomé and Príncipe · 2026

São Tomé and Príncipe records 8 holidays in 2026. 8 are nationwide public holidays and 0 apply only in certain regions. Dia da Independência (12 Jul 2026) and Dia das Forças Armadas (6 Sep 2026) fall on a weekend in 2026, so they hand back no extra day off. Ano Novo (1 Jan 2026) and Dia dos Mártires (3 Feb 2026) sit on a Tuesday or Thursday: book the Mondays and Fridays and each becomes a four-day break. The busiest month is Sep, with 2 of them. The longest run without one is 87 days, between 3 Feb 2026 and 1 May 2026. The next is Dia de São Tomé on 21 Dec 2026.
