Public Holidays in Cambodia — 2027
Cambodia is holiday-rich in 2027, with 21 public holidays spread across the year.
3 of them land on the Saturday + Sunday weekend, which leaves 18 genuine days off work.
The dates are spread fairly evenly — 10 before July and 11 after it — with November the busiest month.
The longest dry spell runs 98 days, from Friday, June 18, 2027 to Friday, September 24, 2027; that is the stretch worth spending annual leave on.
11 holiday(s) sit next to the weekend, and 2 single bridge day(s) could turn into a four-day break.
Cambodia sits in South-Eastern Asia, is run from Phnom Penh, pays in Riel, and has about 16.7M people planning around these same dates.
