About Public Holidays in Ghana
Ghana's holidays reflect a proud Pan-African heritage and deep religious diversity. Independence Day on March 6, the first in sub-Saharan Africa in 1957, anchors the civic calendar, while the country's Christian majority observes Christmas, Easter and Good Friday and its Muslim community celebrates the two Eids. The year's most distinctive celebration is the homowo festival of the Ga people in August, and the Akwasidae ceremonies of the Ashanti court continue throughout the year, honouring the ancestors of the Asantehene.
In 2026, Ghana observes 16 public holidays including 16 national, of which 2 fall on a weekend.
