Planning leave in Italy

Italy gives 14 public days off in 2026, of which 1 are recognised only in certain states or regions. The longest weekend run this year is 4 days (1 Jan – 4 Jan). The busiest month is December, and holidays land most often on a Sunday — two facts that are enough to decide when a ticket must be bought early.

Countries with multi-faith calendars usually have «moving» holidays (Eid al-Fitr, Easter, Chinese New Year, Diwali) whose dates change every year, so check the table a year ahead before booking school holidays.
