About Public Holidays in Paraguay
Paraguay's holiday calendar is marked by its heroic national history and Guarani-Indigenous heritage. Independence Day on May 14-15 is celebrated with the traditional 'Chipa' bread and carnival festivities, while the Battle of Boquerón and the Chaco peace dates honour the 1930s war. The country's Guarani language gives its festivals a distinctive voice: Saint John's Day in June features the kambuchi apégua pot-breaking game, and the 'Pila' carnival before Lent fills the streets. Christmas and New Year complete the year.
In May 2026 there are 3 public holidays: Workers' Day, National Holiday, National Independence Day. In 2026, Paraguay observes 14 public holidays including 14 national, of which 3 fall on a weekend.
