The Monday, November 2, 2026, will be a holiday in nine autonomous communities, which move to that day the corresponding rest for All Saints' Day. The coincidence of November 1 with a Sunday leaves a different calendar depending on the territory and will allow those who have the weekend off and do not have to work on a holiday to enjoy three consecutive days of rest.

Thus, the labor calendar published in the Official State Bulletin lists Monday, November 2, as a holiday in Andalusia, Aragon, Asturias, Canary Islands, Castilla-La Mancha, Castilla y León, Extremadura, Community of Madrid, and Navarra.

In the rest of the communities and in Ceuta and Melilla, it does not appear as a general holiday for the entire territory, without prejudice to the local holidays that each municipality may have.

What days does the All Saints' bridge cover

In the territories that have a holiday on Monday, the rest can extend from Saturday, October 31, to Monday, November 2, both included. The bridge will also depend on each worker's schedule: having a holiday on the calendar does not imply that all sectors and services suspend their activity.

Why the holiday is not moved to Monday throughout Spain

The regulations allow autonomous communities to replace the rest of the Monday following a national holiday that coincides with Sunday with another traditional holiday.

Therefore, the coincidence of All Saints' Day with Sunday does not generate a common holiday Monday throughout Spain. Each territory configures its calendar within the legal framework and the possibilities of substitution.

In Andalusia, for example, the autonomous decree expressly establishes that the rest corresponding to November 1 is moved to the immediate following Monday.

Is November 2 a holiday in Madrid?

Yes. Monday, November 2, is a holiday throughout the Community of Madrid, due to the transfer of All Saints' Day, according to the calendar approved by the autonomous government.

Is it a holiday in Catalonia, the Valencian Community, or the Basque Country?

It does not appear as an autonomous holiday on November 2 in Catalonia, the Valencian Community, or the Basque Country. Nor in Galicia, the Balearic Islands, Cantabria, Murcia, or La Rioja.
