About Public Holidays in Guiné-Bissau
Guinea-Bissau celebrates a holiday calendar reflecting its revolutionary history and its religious diversity. Independence Day on September 24 marks the 1973 unilateral declaration, and the country observes the anniversary of the assassination of Amílcar Cabral in January and the liberation war heroes' day. The two Eids follow the Islamic calendar while Christmas is kept by the Christian minority, and the country's famous Carnival in February — celebrated with particular exuberance in Bissau — blends Portuguese, African and animist traditions.
In December 2026 there is 1 public holiday: Christmas Day. In 2026, Guinea-Bissau observes 11 public holidays including 11 national, of which 2 fall on a weekend.
