About the holidays

The list shows the national holidays set by federal law. The fixed ones (Christmas, Independence Day and others) always fall on the same date. The moveable ones, like Carnival, Good Friday, Easter and Corpus Christi, derive from the Easter date, found with the Anonymous Gregorian algorithm.

The whole calculation runs inside the browser itself, with no calls to any server. Worth noting that Black Consciousness Day (Nov 20) became a national holiday back in 2023, under Law 14,759/2023.

A calendar with Brazil's holidays

Planning a trip or a long weekend gets a lot simpler when you can see all twelve months at once, with the holidays already marked. This calendar shows the whole year on a single page and highlights Brazil's national holidays, so nothing catches you off guard.

It covers the fixed-date holidays, like Christmas and Tiradentes, and also the movable ones that shift every year and are harder to remember. Carnival, Good Friday, Easter and Corpus Christi all show up here, derived from the date of Easter. Navigate between years to check past dates or plan ahead.

The whole calculation happens in the browser, so once it has loaded the calendar works even without a connection. It's a quick reference for when you want to spot bridge days and long weekends.

Frequently asked questions

Are Carnival and Corpus Christi official national holidays in Brazil?

Under federal law, no. The national holidays are the nine fixed dates listed here, plus Good Friday as a religious one. Carnival Monday and Tuesday and Corpus Christi are ponto facultativo, an optional day off that each employer, city or public body grants or not. The calendar still marks them because in practice the country largely stops.

Does it show state and city holidays?

No, the grid marks only dates with national reach. City anniversaries, the 9 July Constitutionalist Revolution in São Paulo, Saint George in Rio de Janeiro and local days of observance are left out, so check your city hall list before booking travel. Note too that 20 November appears in every year you browse, although it only became a national holiday in 2024.

How do I find out which day Carnival falls on in a future year?

Use the arrows to reach the year and look for the two marked days in February or March. They are computed rather than read from a table: Easter is the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after 21 March, Carnival sits 48 and 47 days before it, Good Friday 2 days before and Corpus Christi 60 days after. Any year works, past or future.
