Steps

  1. Find the local holidays
    The official source lists 27 March and 25 September as the local holidays for 2026.
  2. Add the regional holidays
    The Region of Murcia’s 2026 holidays are 1 and 6 January, 19 March, 2 and 3 April, 1 May, 9 June (Day of the Region), 15 August, 12 October, 7 December, 8 December and 25 December.
  3. Check when shops may open
    No official page listing the Sundays and holidays when shops may open was read for this city; check the regional commerce department before planning around it.
  4. Plan around closures
    Local holidays are paid, non-recoverable days off for workers and count as non-working days for administrative deadlines, so offices may be closed and deadlines can move; check the office’s own page.
