Does this list include regional holidays?
No. Only NATIONAL holidays are listed, the ones that apply across Philippines. 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 Philippines, the ones that apply countrywide. It does not include patron saint festivals or department or municipal holidays: for those, check with the labor authority of Philippines or your local government.
