This is the holiday calendar for 2024 in Catalonia

BarcelonaThe labor calendar of 2024 in Catalonia will have 11 holidays that will fall on weekdays, as explained this Wednesday by the Department of Business and Labor of the Generalitat after agreeing with unions and employers. Next year it will not have any macro bridge, beyond Easter, and at most long weekends will coincide. These holidays are those of a state nature and the autonomous ones, but, in addition, the councils must choose two more local holidays per year, which vary according to each municipality.
