About Public Holidays in New Zealand
New Zealand's holidays reflect British tradition, Mฤori culture and the pioneering egalitarian spirit. Waitangi Day on February 6, the country's national day, commemorates the 1840 treaty between the Crown and Mฤori, while Anzac Day on April 25 brings dawn services honouring the fallen. Matariki, the Mฤori New Year marked by the rising of the Pleiades, became a public holiday in 2022 and anchors the winter. Christmas falls in summer, and the country observes its own Labour Day in late October.
In 2028, New Zealand observes 14 public holidays including 14 national, of which 3 fall on a weekend.
