Ecuador Public Holidays 2027

Complete list of public holidays — nationwide & regional

Ecuador observes 10 nationwide public holidays in 2027. Of these, 3 fall on a weekend this particular year, which leaves 7 on working days — a detail worth checking, since holidays that land on a Saturday or Sunday are not always compensated with a day off in lieu. There are 2 clear "bridge day" opportunities this year — where a public holiday falls on a Tuesday or Thursday, so taking the single adjoining day off turns it into a four-day weekend. The calendar opens with New Year's Day on Friday 1 January and closes with Christmas Day on Saturday 25 December.
