Romania public holidays 2026

JSON · Add to calendar

1. Thu, 01 Jan 2026New Year

   The supplied Romanian calendar lists Anul Nou, or New Year, on 1 January 2026 as a public holiday. The attached background describes 1 January as New Year’s Day in the Gregorian calendar and notes that calendar-year beginnings vary among cultures. That general context does not document Romanian-specific customs or legal arrangements. This entry therefore records the calendar’s date and classification without assuming that everyone observes the day in the same way or describing particular celebrations.

2. Tue, 06 Jan 2026Epiphany

   The supplied Romanian calendar lists Bobotează, named Epiphany in the entry, on 6 January 2026 as a public holiday. The accompanying context excerpt only notes that “Epiphany” can refer to different things, so it does not substantiate the observance’s Romanian religious meaning, history, or customs. This entry is consequently limited to the calendar’s name, date, and classification. It does not assume particular practices or that every person in Romania observes the day.

3. Wed, 07 Jan 2026Saint John the Baptist Day

   The supplied Romanian calendar lists Sfântul Ion, rendered in English as Saint John the Baptist Day, on 7 January 2026 as a public holiday. No contextual source was supplied for this entry, so the name and calendar record are the limits of the evidence here. The entry does not establish the day’s history, religious customs, or detailed legal treatment. It records the listed date and classification without suggesting that observance is universal.

4. Sat, 24 Jan 2026Day of the Unification of the Romanian Principalities

   Ziua Unirii Principatelor Române, also called Little Union Day, is listed in the supplied calendar for 24 January 2026. The attached background says the day commemorates the union of Moldavia and Wallachia on 24 January 1859 under Alexandru Ioan Cuza, an important step toward a unified Romanian state. It also says the observance became a non-working day in Romania in 2016. These details explain the historical reference behind the calendar entry.

5. Fri, 10 Apr 2026Orthodox Good Friday

   The supplied Romanian calendar lists Vinerea Mare, or Orthodox Good Friday, on 10 April 2026 as a public holiday. No contextual source accompanies this entry, so the evidence provided does not explain Romanian religious practice, the date’s background, or the holiday’s detailed legal status. This entry therefore retains the calendar’s designation and date without adding claims about how the day is marked. The record supports the listing but does not by itself establish nationwide legal coverage.

6. Sun, 12 Apr 2026Orthodox Easter Sunday

   The supplied Romanian calendar lists Prima zi de Paşte, or Orthodox Easter Sunday, on 12 April 2026 as a public holiday. No contextual source was supplied for this entry. Accordingly, the evidence here establishes the calendar’s date, Romanian listing, and Orthodox designation, but does not independently document the day’s religious history, Romanian customs, or legal details. This entry avoids assumptions about how individuals observe the occasion and does not treat the calendar record alone as proof of nationwide legal coverage.

7. Mon, 13 Apr 2026Orthodox Easter Monday

   The supplied Romanian calendar lists A doua zi de Paște, or Orthodox Easter Monday, on 13 April 2026 as a public holiday. The entry has no accompanying contextual source, so details beyond its name, date, and classification remain unverified in the supplied material. This calendar record does not explain the day’s Romanian religious or cultural significance, nor does it independently confirm its nationwide legal scope. The entry is limited to what the listing establishes.

8. Fri, 01 May 2026Labour Day

   The supplied Romanian calendar lists Ziua Muncii, or Labour Day, on 1 May 2026 as a public holiday. The attached background explains that Labour Day is linked with International Workers’ Day on 1 May in many countries and with the labour movement. This is general international context, not evidence of a uniquely Romanian history or of specific Romanian observances. The calendar record provides the date and classification but does not by itself establish the holiday’s nationwide legal scope.

9. Sun, 31 May 2026Orthodox Pentecost Sunday

   The supplied Romanian calendar lists Prima zi de Rusalii, or Orthodox Pentecost Sunday, on 31 May 2026 as a public holiday. No contextual source was supplied, so the entry’s religious background, Romanian customs, and legal details are not established by the accompanying evidence. This description stays with the calendar’s date and designation rather than assuming how the occasion is observed. The record supports the calendar listing, but it does not independently confirm nationwide legal coverage.

10. Mon, 01 Jun 2026Children's Day

    The supplied Romanian calendar lists Ziua Copilului, or Children’s Day, on 1 June 2026 as a public holiday. The attached background notes that the date of Children’s Day varies internationally and that 1 June is used in many countries. That broad context does not document the Romanian observance’s history or particular practices. This entry therefore states the calendar’s Romanian listing and date without implying universal participation or adding unsupported descriptions of how the day is marked.

11. Mon, 01 Jun 2026Orthodox Pentecost Monday

    The supplied Romanian calendar lists A doua zi de Rusalii, or Orthodox Pentecost Monday, on 1 June 2026 as a public holiday. No contextual source was supplied for this listing, so the material does not independently explain the observance’s Romanian religious background, customs, or legal treatment. This entry is limited to the date and designation provided by the calendar. It does not infer how the day is observed or treat the calendar listing alone as proof of nationwide legal coverage.

12. Sat, 15 Aug 2026Assumption Day

    The supplied Romanian calendar lists Adormirea Maicii Domnului on 15 August 2026 as a public holiday, using the English name Assumption Day. The attached background says that Eastern Christianity refers to the corresponding belief as the Dormition of the Mother of God and places the observance on 15 August. This provides useful religious terminology, but it does not establish Romanian legal coverage or describe local practices. The entry keeps to the supported date and context.

13. Mon, 30 Nov 2026Saint Andrew's Day

    The supplied Romanian calendar lists Sfântul Apostol Andrei, or Saint Andrew’s Day, on 30 November 2026 as a public holiday. The attached background identifies 30 November as the feast day of Andrew the Apostle, but it does not describe Romanian-specific history or observance. This entry uses that limited background alongside the calendar’s date and classification. It does not assume that everyone observes the day or that the supplied record alone confirms nationwide legal coverage.

14. Tue, 01 Dec 2026National Day of Romania

    The supplied Romanian calendar lists Ziua Națională a României, or National Day of Romania, on 1 December 2026 as a public holiday. The attached excerpt concerns public holidays in Romania generally but does not explain this day’s historical meaning or the reason for its date. The entry therefore records the calendar’s name, date, and classification without supplying an unverified historical account. The calendar listing supports its inclusion, but does not independently establish nationwide legal coverage.

15. Fri, 25 Dec 2026First Christmas Day

    The supplied Romanian calendar lists Prima zi de Crăciun, or First Christmas Day, on 25 December 2026 as a public holiday. The attached context source is about NBA Christmas games and does not support information about Christmas in Romania, so it is not used as evidence here. The calendar provides the name, date, and classification only. This entry does not add claims about Romanian traditions, religious practice, or the holiday’s detailed legal status beyond what the listing records.

16. Sat, 26 Dec 2026Second Christmas Day

    The supplied Romanian calendar lists A doua zi de Crăciun, or Second Christmas Day, on 26 December 2026 as a public holiday. The attached background describes Christmas observance internationally and notes that some governments recognize the day after Christmas; it does not specifically verify Romania’s arrangements. This entry therefore combines that limited general context with the Romanian calendar listing, without inferring local customs or legal details. The record itself does not independently establish nationwide legal coverage.
