Overview

  • The Jefatura de Gabinete published Resolution 139/2025 in the Boletín Oficial, transferring the Día del Respeto a la Diversidad Cultural from Sunday, October 12, to Friday, October 10, for a three‑day break from October 10 to 12.
  • The decision implements Decree 614/2025, which empowers the Cabinet to relocate trasladable holidays that fall on Saturdays or Sundays to nearby weekdays to concentrate demand.
  • Municipalities in Buenos Aires Province—San Miguel del Monte, San Miguel Arcángel and General Alvarado—set Monday, September 29, as a local holiday with public‑sector closure and optional observance for private employers.
  • Media report that Friday, September 26, will be a holiday for thousands of workers, though that claim lacks an accompanying official citation in the coverage provided.
  • The remaining multi‑day breaks in 2025 include October 10–12, a four‑day weekend from November 21–24 combining a tourism day with the moved Día de la Soberanía Nacional, and December 6–8 for the Immaculate Conception.
