Barbados observes 12 nationwide public holidays each year. Every holiday applies nationwide, so there are no regional days to track. 9 keep the same date every year, such as New Year's Day, Errol Barrow Day and 7 others. The other 3 move from year to year — Good Friday, Easter Monday and Whit Monday — so check the date before you plan. In 2026, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Labour Day and 4 others land on a Monday or Friday, giving a three-day weekend with no leave needed.
