Public Holidays in Côte d’Ivoire — 2025
Côte d’Ivoire keeps a short official calendar in 2025: 10 public holidays in total, so each one carries real weight for planning.

The dates are spread fairly evenly — 5 before July and 5 after it — with May the busiest month.
The longest dry spell runs 110 days, from Wednesday, January 1, 2025 to Monday, April 21, 2025; that is the stretch worth spending annual leave on.
3 holiday(s) sit next to the weekend, and 4 single bridge day(s) could turn into a four-day break.
Côte d’Ivoire sits in Western Africa, is run from Yamoussoukro, pays in Cfa Franc, Bceao, and has about 26.4M people planning around these same dates.
