About Public Holidays in Republica Moldova
Moldova's holidays blend Orthodox Christianity with Romanian cultural heritage and the legacy of Soviet history. Independence Day on August 27 and the National Language Day on August 31 anchor the civic calendar, while Orthodox Easter and Christmas follow the church calendar. The spring Mฤrศiศor tradition โ giving red-and-white woven charms on March 1 โ is shared with Romania, and the 'Hram' village festivals honouring local saints fill the summer. The Moldovan wine festival in October adds a distinctly local celebration.
In May 2026 there are 2 public holidays: International Workers' Solidarity Day, Europe Day; Victory Day and Commemoration of the heroes fallen for Independence of Fatherland. In 2026, Moldova observes 13 public holidays including 13 national, of which 3 fall on a weekend.
