Long weekends and bridge days in Paraguay

A long weekend is three or more days off in a row made by a nationwide holiday and the weekend. A bridge day is a working day with a day off on both sides: one leave day there joins a holiday to the weekend, or two holidays to each other.

Long weekends (4)

Friday 1 January to Sunday 3 January 2027: 3 days off, with New Year's Day.
Saturday 27 February to Monday 1 March 2027: 3 days off, with Heroes' day.
Thursday 25 March to Sunday 28 March 2027: 4 days off, with Maundy Thursday, Good Friday.
Friday 14 May to Sunday 16 May 2027: 3 days off, with Paraguayan Independence.

Bridge days (0)

No working day in 2027 sits between two days off, so there is no bridge day by this rule.

Regional holidays are left out of both lists: they depend on where the employee works.

Regional holidays

Every public holiday in Paraguay applies nationwide, so one list covers all employees there.
