Valencian Government Approves 2027 Labor Calendar, Drops San Juan Holiday

Officials say the lineup protects key festivals to limit economic disruption.

Overview

  • The Consell approved a decree setting 12 paid, non‑recoverable regional holidays for 2027 in the Valencian Community.
  • June 24 (San Juan) will not be a regional holiday in 2027 after being included in 2026, and it will not be a recoverable day.
  • The calendar’s layout creates up to six three‑day weekends and allows extended breaks around October 12 and December 6–8.
  • Several holidays land on weekends without transfer, including May 1, October 9 and December 25 on Saturday, with August 15 falling on Sunday outside the regional list.
  • Alicante’s Fogueres federation criticized the omission of San Juan, the government cited economic considerations, and municipalities will still add two local festivity days following the Tripartite Council’s report.
