The Saudi Arabia holiday calendar at a glance
Saudi Arabia observes 14 nationwide public holidays each year. Every holiday applies nationwide, so there are no regional days to track. 2 keep the same date every year, such as يوم التأسيس and اليوم الوطني. The other 5 move from year to year — عيد الأضحى (1/5), عيد الأضحى (2/5), عيد الأضحى (3/5) and 2 others — so check the date before you plan. In 2026, عيد الفطر (4/7), عيد الفطر (7/7) and عيد الأضحى (2/5) land on a Monday or Friday, giving a three-day weekend with no leave needed. 14 are listed as bank holidays: banks close, but other employers may stay open.
