Public Holidays in Chile — 2025

There are 17 public holidays in Chile in 2025 — a middle-of-the-road calendar by international standards.

5 of them land on the Saturday + Sunday weekend, which leaves 12 genuine days off work.

The dates are spread fairly evenly — 8 before July and 9 after it — with June the busiest month.

The longest dry spell runs 107 days, from Wednesday, January 1, 2025 to Friday, April 18, 2025; that is the stretch worth spending annual leave on.

6 holiday(s) sit next to the weekend, and 2 single bridge day(s) could turn into a four-day break.

Chile sits in South America, is run from Santiago, pays in Chilean Peso, and has about 19.1M people planning around these same dates.
