When is New Year celebrated in Portugal in 2025?
In 2025, New Year's Day in Portugal is on January 1, 2025.
Are regional holidays included for Portugal?
No. This calendar lists national public holidays only, so it stays consistent across countries. Holidays that apply to just part of Portugal are listed separately on the Portugal holiday hub, together with the regions that observe them.
Do the Portugal holiday dates change from 2025 to the next year?
Some of them do. 3 of the 13 holidays in 2025 sit on a moving rule (linked to easter), so their date has to be recalculated for every year. The rest keep the same calendar date and only change weekday. Moving ones this year include Good Friday on April 18, 2025, Easter Sunday on April 20, 2025 and Corpus Christi on June 19, 2025.
How far ahead is the Portugal calendar actually fixed?
Through 2027. The holidays are set in law rather than announced year by year, so the dates repeat predictably. What can still change is a law amendment, a one-off holiday declared for a national event, and the exact day of any holiday on the Islamic calendar, which is confirmed by moon sighting. No corrections to the underlying dataset were needed for Portugal.
Which Portugal holidays are regional, and which move?
The table above is the national calendar for 2025. Some holidays keep the same date every year while others are tied to Easter, to a lunar calendar or to a named weekday, and some parts of the country add their own days off. The Portugal holiday hub breaks that down: which holidays are fixed, which move and why, and which ones are observed in certain regions only.
