About public holidays in Chile
Public holidays shape the working year in Chile, closing many offices, banks and public services and shifting the rhythm of travel and shopping. Knowing the dates ahead of time helps with planning meetings across borders, arranging deliveries and choosing when to take time off. The 2026 calendar above shows the national holidays that apply across the whole country, with the exact date and the weekday each one falls on.
Some holidays are fixed to the same calendar date every year, while others move, for example those tied to a particular weekday or to a lunar or religious calendar. That is why the dates shift from one year to the next, and why it is worth checking the specific year you are planning for. HolidayGrid keeps a separate page for each year so the dates are always the right ones for Chile, first 2025, then 2026 and 2027. As always, confirm official dates with a local authority before you commit to travel or contracts.
