About Public Holidays in Congo
The Republic of the Congo celebrates a holiday calendar rooted in its French colonial past and its revolutionary history. Independence Day on August 15 marks the 1960 break from France, and the country observes the 1963 revolution and the 1979 reforms with commemorative holidays. Christmas, Easter and the Assumption anchor the Catholic year, and the traditional dance and mask culture of the Kongo peoples — including the famous Les Ballets Africains — gives national celebrations a distinctly Congolese character.
In August 2026 there is 1 public holiday: National Day. In 2026, Republic of the Congo observes 10 public holidays including 10 national, of which 3 fall on a weekend.
