This is Algeria's national public holiday calendar — the same live calendar shown on Algeria's country-level and Blida holiday pages — embedded here because public holidays are set nationally and apply the same way in Shari'ah as anywhere else in Algeria.

A statutory holiday falling on a Saturday or Sunday in Shari'ah doesn't simply get skipped — Algeria's gazette process typically moves the observed day off to the following Monday.
