Frequently asked questions

How many national public holidays does Fiji have in 2026?
Fiji has 10 national public holidays in 2026. These apply across the whole country; local holidays for a department or municipality are not included.
When is the next public holiday in Fiji?
The next one is Diwali, on November 8 (Sunday). 3 days to go.
Which public holidays fall on a weekend in 2026?
4 of the 10 fall on a Saturday or Sunday: Holy Saturday (April 4), Fiji Day (October 10), Diwali (November 8), Boxing Day (December 26).
Are public holidays paid in Fiji?
National public holidays are generally paid days off, and working on one usually entitles you to extra pay. The details and the rate depend on the law of Fiji and on your contract: check with your country’s labour authority.
Does this list include regional holidays?
No. Only NATIONAL holidays are listed, the ones that apply across Fiji. Patron saint festivals and department or municipal holidays are left out on purpose: mixing them in would produce a list that applies to no one in particular, because someone who lives in one town does not get another town’s patron saint day off.
This list includes only the NATIONAL public holidays of Fiji, the ones that apply countrywide. It does not include patron saint festivals or department or municipal holidays: for those, check with the labour authority of Fiji or your local government.
