Holidays 2026: when is the next long weekend, holiday or unmovable holiday

Argentina's upcoming holidays in 2026 include a long weekend in March, starting from March 23 with a tourist holiday followed by a national holiday.

As summer comes to an end, many Argentinians begin to consider short getaways or moments of relaxation to break the routine in the coming months. This highlights the importance of having the calendar of holidays and long weekends on hand for effective planning. In March, there will be an opportunity for a break with several consecutive days off, perfect for a quick escape or enjoying free time.

The next holiday in Argentina, set for March 23, 2026, will mark the beginning of a long weekend. This day is designated as a non-working day for tourism purposes and will be followed by March 24, a national holiday observing the National Day of Memory for Truth and Justice, which commemorates the start of the last civic-military dictatorship in 1976. As a result, this will create a long four-day weekend for citizens to enjoy.

Overall, these holidays not only provide a chance for relaxation and travel for many Argentinians but also carry significant historical importance, particularly the observance of national memory. Such extended weekends encourage local tourism and leisure activities, making them important for both individual well-being and the economy, as people take advantage of these days off for various recreational plans.
