Public offices, banks and schools throughout Katavi close on the same fixed-date statutory holidays observed nationwide, since public holidays in Tanzania are a matter of national labor law rather than state-by-state decree.
When a fixed statutory public holiday falls on a weekend in Katavi, government gazette decrees often designate the adjacent Monday as an official substitute non-working day.
As Katavi's capital, Mpanda observes the identical statutory calendar — there's no separate capital-city holiday list distinct from the rest of Katavi.
