The French Guiana holiday calendar at a glance

French Guiana 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 Jour de l'An, Fête du Travail and 7 others. The other 3 move from year to year — Lundi de Pâques, Ascension and Lundi de Pentecôte — so check the date before you plan. In 2026, Lundi de Pâques, Fête du Travail, Fête de la Victoire 1945 and 2 others land on a Monday or Friday, giving a three-day weekend with no leave needed.

What these days actually mean

Observance, business closures and transport impact for the next few dates.

All Saints' Day

1 Nov 2026

Public
Observance
Families visit cemeteries with flowers and candles. Quiet and reflective rather than festive.
Business
Banks and most shops closed in Catholic-majority countries; florists do their busiest day of the year.
Transport
Extra services to cemeteries; heavy intercity travel over the weekend.

Armistice Day

11 Nov 2026

Public
Observance
Officially recognised as a public holiday, so most people have the day off work.
Business
Expect offices, banks and the majority of shops to be closed.
Transport
Public transport usually runs a Sunday or holiday timetable.

General guidance based on this day's official classification, not country-specific reporting.

Christmas Day

25 Dec 2026

Public
Observance
The central Christian winter feast; in most countries the household gathering matters more than the church service.
Business
Near-total closure of retail, offices and banks. Expect the preceding afternoon to shut early too.
Transport
Skeleton or suspended services in many countries. Book intercity travel well ahead.
