Remaining Public Holidays in the Canary Islands for 2024
As the year draws to a close, it’s important to take note of the remaining public holidays in the Canary Islands for 2024.
While most holidays have already passed, a few significant ones remain, spanning national, regional, and island levels. However, there’s a small disappointment—one key holiday that created a long weekend in 2023 will not be repeated this year.
The Ministry of Tourism and Employment, led by Jéssica de León, has confirmed the upcoming non-working days, in line with national legislation. These holidays are considered paid and non-recoverable:
National Holidays
- October 12: National Day of Spain
- November 1: All Saints' Day
- December 6: Constitution Day
- December 25: Christmas Day
One change to note this year is that December 8, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, falls on a Sunday and will not be compensated with a day off. This means the extra long weekend many enjoyed in 2023 will not happen in 2024.
Island-Specific Holidays
- September 16: Our Lady of the Volcanoes (Lanzarote and La Graciosa)
- September 20: Our Lady of La Peña (Fuerteventura)
- September 24: Our Lady of Los Reyes (El Hierro)
- October 7: Our Lady of Guadalupe (La Gomera)
