The Liberia holiday calendar at a glance

Liberia observes 11 nationwide public holidays each year. Every holiday applies nationwide, so there are no regional days to track. All of them keep the same calendar date every year, which makes planning ahead simple. In 2026, Fast and Prayer Day, National Flag Day and Christmas Day land on a Monday or Friday, giving a three-day weekend with no leave needed.
