About Public Holidays in Latvija
Latvia's holidays blend Christian feasts, Baltic folk traditions and the memory of independence. November 18 marks the 1918 proclamation of the republic and May 4 the 1990 restoration of independence, both celebrated with candlelit ceremonies. The midsummer festival of Jāņi on June 23-24 is the country's most joyous holiday, with bonfires, cheese, beer and singing through the shortest night. Christmas in Latvia follows the 'Ziemassvētki' customs, and the Winter Solstice traditions of the Baltic peoples give December a distinctly northern character.
In 2026, Latvia observes 8 public holidays including 8 national, of which 1 falls on a weekend.
