2026 Holiday Calendars Set: Peru Confirms 16 National Feriados, U.S. Lists 11 Federal Holidays, Argentina Notes a Local Date

Updated timetables will guide closures, observance dates and worker pay obligations.

Overview

  • Peru’s government confirmed 16 nationwide feriados for 2026 that suspend work and classes across public and private sectors.
  • Peruvian law differentiates statutory feriados from executive-declared días no laborables, and the 2026 non-working days list has not yet been issued.
  • Workers in Peru who serve on a feriado without compensatory rest must receive triple the daily remuneration under labor rules.
  • The United States has 11 federal holidays in 2026 under Title 5, with Independence Day falling on Saturday, July 4, and observed on Friday, July 3 for most federal employees.
  • A municipal decree in Florencio Varela, Argentina, sets Friday, January 30, 2026 as a local anniversary holiday, creating a long weekend only within that jurisdiction.
