Public Holidays in Morocco — 2025

Morocco keeps a short official calendar in 2025: 10 public holidays in total, so each one carries real weight for planning.

1 of them land on the Saturday + Sunday weekend, which leaves 9 genuine days off work.

The dates are spread fairly evenly — 4 before July and 6 after it — with January the busiest month.

The longest dry spell runs 107 days, from Tuesday, January 14, 2025 to Thursday, May 1, 2025; that is the stretch worth spending annual leave on.

No holiday touches the weekend directly this year, so long breaks have to be built from annual leave.

Morocco sits in Northern Africa, is run from Rabat, pays in Moroccan Dirham, and has about 36.9M people planning around these same dates.
