Public holidays in Marshall Islands are nationwide days off recognised by the government, when most banks, schools and government offices close and many businesses adjust their hours. They mark historical, cultural, religious or civic occasions and are a standard reference point for supply chain managers timing operations around local closures working with Marshall Islands.

1 fixed-date public holiday is documented for Marshall Islands in the table above, on top of movable observances shown in the live calendar. The exact total varies year to year — some holidays fall on a fixed date, while Easter-based, Islamic-calendar or other lunar observances shift annually, and some are added by regional decree. See the live calendar above for the current list of upcoming and recently observed dates.

Official public holidays in Marshall Islands are enacted by national acts of parliament and published via mof.gov.mh. These non-working days carry legal status for banking, public administration, and employment compliance.

Commemorates the signing of the Constitution of the Marshall Islands in 1979. It falls on May 1 and carries official non-working status in Marshall Islands — see the statutory holidays table above for its closure impact and official source.

It's Google's own official "Marshall Islands" holiday calendar, embedded directly via Google's public calendar integration — Google serves the data straight to your browser in real time, and we don't store, edit or republish any of it ourselves. For the smaller set of fixed-date national holidays we've individually fact-checked, see the statutory holidays table above instead.

Some do and some don't. Fixed-date holidays repeat on the same calendar day annually, while others follow the Easter calculation, the Islamic lunar calendar, or an "nth weekday of the month" rule — so their date moves from year to year. See how public holidays work above for the full explanation of why, or check the calendar itself for each year's actual date.

When a fixed public holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, many governments designate the following Monday as an official substitute non-working day (often termed an 'observed holiday'). Check Marshall Islands's official gazette announcements or the live calendar embed for specific year-by-year substitute day designations.

Check the day of the week shown next to each entry in the calendar above: holidays falling on a Monday or Friday create an automatic three-day weekend, while a Tuesday or Thursday holiday can often be extended to four days by taking the day in between off — a common practice known as a "bridge day" in many countries. See the Marshall Islands travel guide once you've picked a date worth planning a trip around.

The official holidays table above lists fixed-date national public holidays mandated by law. Dynamic, movable observances (such as Eid or Easter) shift calendar dates annually based on lunar or religious computations — those dates are updated continuously in the live Google Calendar embed below.
